Question

A8.1. Along a circular dashed path on a plate, an ant is running with V = 50 mm/s and A =20 mm/s?. The diameter of the path is 400 mm.

The plate is pinned at fixed point O and rotates with w = 1 rad/s and a = 0.5 rad/s² Draw and report the total acceleration vector of the ant with respect to the fixed ground.
