Question: Two rotating rods are connected by a slider block P as shown. Knowing that rod BP rotates with a constant angular velocity of 6 rad/s

Two rotating rods are connected by a slider block P as shown. Knowing that rod BP rotates with a constant angular velocity of 6 rad/s counterclockwise, use computational software to determine and plot, for values of θ from 0 to 180°, 

(a) the angular velocity and angular acceleration of rod  AE. 

(b) Determine the value of θ for which the angular acceleration αAE of rod AE is maximum and the corresponding value of αAE.
