Spring 2003 Example Given: Catapult rotating at a constant rate(frictionless, in the horizontal plane) Find the eom of the particle as it leaves the tube
Introduction We started with one frame (B) rotating and accelerating with respect to another(), and obtained the following expression for the absolute acceleration
