The rod assembly is supported by ball-and-socket joints at A and B. At the instant shown it is rotating about the y axis with an angular velocity ω = 5 rad/s and has an angular acceleration α = 8 rad/s². Determine the magnitudes of
the velocity and acceleration of point C at this instant.
Solve the problem using Cartesian vectors and Eqs. 16-9
and 16-13.
