The linkage consists of the two slender bars and moves in the horizontal plane under the influence

Question:

The linkage consists of the two slender bars and moves in the horizontal plane under the influence of force P. Link OC has a mass m and link AC has a mass 2m. The sliding block at B has negligible mass. Without dismembering the system, determine the initial angular acceleration  of the links as P is applied at A with the links initially at rest.
