Two objects, A and B, are connected by hinges to a rigid rod that has a length L. The objects slide along perpendicular guide rails, as shown in Figure Assume object A slides to the left with a constant speed v. (a) Find the velocity VB of object B as a function of the angle 8. (b) Describe v relative to v: is y V always smaller than v, larger than v, the same as v, or does it have some other relationship?
