Question:

A chain is looped around two gears of radius 2 in. that can rotate freely with respect to the 16-in. arm AB. The chain moves about arm AB in a clockwise direction at the constant rate of 4 in./s relative to the arm. Knowing that in the position shown arm AB rotates clockwise about A at the constant rate 0.75 rad/ω = s, determine the acceleration of each of the chain links 1 and 2.
