1. The water sprinkler is rotating at 2 rad/s with an acceleration of 3 rad/s^2. The velocity of the water particle at the exit (r = 0.2m) is 3.03m/s and its acceleration is 12.6m/s^2. 2. A double collar on a rotating rod AB has a velocity of 0.233m/s radially and 0.947m/s tangentially at t = 1s with accelerations of -2.34m/s^2 and 1.71m/s^2 respectively. Using Simpson's rule, the angle is 69.3o. 3. For a snail

Q1. A water sprinkler is rotating with an angular speed dθ dt = 2 rad/s and an angular
acceleration d 2θ dt 2 = 3 rad/s2. Determine the velocity and acceleration of a water particle as
it exits the open end, r = 0.2m. The water flow rate is 3m/s.

Q2. The figure shows a double collar C is pin connected such that one collar slides over a
fixed rod and the other slides over a rotating rod AB. The angular velocity of rotating rod AB
