Question: The collar P slides outward at a constant relative speed u along rod AB, which rotates counterclockwise with a constant angular velocity of 20 rpm.

The collar P slides outward at a constant relative speed u along rod AB, which rotates counterclockwise with a constant angular velocity of 20 rpm. Knowing that r = 10 in. when θ = 0 and that the collar reaches B when θ =90?, determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the collar P just as it reaches B.
