Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Plane Kinetics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 6_121
6/121 The two uniform slender bars are hinged at O and supported on the horizontal surface by their end rollers of negligible mass. If the bars are released from rest in the position shown, determine their initial angular acceleration \(\alpha\) as they collapse in the vertical plane. (Suggestion: Make use of the instantaneous center of zero velocity in writing the expression for \(dT\).)
