Question: Disk D , of radius r = 0 . 5 m , rolls without slipping on a horizontal floor with a constant clockwise angular velocity.

Disk D, of radius r=0.5m, rolls without slipping on a
horizontal floor with a constant clockwise angular
velocity. Rod R, is hinged to disk D at A, and the end of
the rod B, slides along the floor. Determine the angular
velocity of rod R when the line OA joining the center of
the disk to the hinge at A is horizontal as shown. For
the instant shown, the x and y components of the
velocity of point A are 2.5m//s and 2.0m//s
respectively.
Is the angular velocity of the rod R clockwise (CW) or
counter-clockwise (CCW)? Please type either CW or
CCW.[a] also the correct answer is 1 rad/s CCW or 1 radian/s counter clockwise please explain why it is
Disk D , of radius r = 0 . 5 m , rolls without
