(12.193)-The double collar C is pin connected together such that one collar slides over the fixed rod and the other slides over the rotating rod AB. If the angular velocity of AB is given as u = (e^0.5 t^2) rad/s, where t is in seconds, and the path defined by the fixed rod is r = |(0.4 sin u + 0.2)| m, determine the radial and transverse components of the collar’s velocity and acceleration when t = 1 s. When t = 0, u = 0. Use Simpson’s rule with n = 50 to determine u at t = 1 s.
