Problem 15.256: 1. Determine Velocities in A Body Rotating About A Fix Axis

This problem involves determining the velocity of a collar sliding on a fixed rod, given that a connected rotating arm rotates at a constant rate. The velocity can be found by treating the rotating arm and sliding collar as points in a rigid body rotating about a fixed axis. The velocity of the collar is equal to the angular velocity crossed with the position vector from the rotating arm to the collar, plus any angular velocity of the overall rigid body. Solving the equations results in the velocity of the collar being 7.84 in/s.
