Meriam, Kraige & Bolton — Plane Kinematics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 5_131

5/131 The small collar A is sliding on the bent bar with speed $u$ relative to the bar as shown. Simultaneously, the bar is rotating with angular velocity $\omega$ about the fixed pivot $B$. Take the $x$-$y$ axes to be fixed to the bar and determine the Coriolis acceleration of the slider for the instant represented. Interpret your result.
