Question: Problem 3 ( HW + 2 p . ) Wheel of radius R spins with constant angular velocity as shown in the figure. What is

Problem 3(HW +2 p.)
Wheel of radius R spins with constant angular velocity as shown in the figure. What is the position, velocity, acceleration and the speed of the material point P at the instance =45. Present your answer in (1) cylindrical coordinate system and (2) in the cartesian coordinate system shown in the figure.
Partial Answer:
Cylindrical frame: ,v=Ru
Cartesian frame: ,v=R22(-i+j)
Problem 4:
Particle P travels along a helix so that its position vector in the fixed xyz-frame is given by r(t)=r(t)cos(t)i+r(t)sin(t)j+z(t)k, where r(t)=R,(t)=t and z(t)= and are all constants). Derive the expression for the position r, velocity v=r and acceleration a=r of P in the cylindrical coordinate system.
Answer:
r=Rur+vztuz
v=Ru+vzuz
a=-R2ur
