MCQ
Find the acceleration of $B$.
  • A
    $\frac{a \sin \alpha_1}{\cos \alpha_2}$
  • $\frac{\operatorname{acos} \alpha_1}{\cos \alpha_2}$
  • C
    $\frac{ a \cos \alpha_2}{\cos \alpha_1}$
  • D
    $\frac{\cos \alpha_1}{\cos \alpha_2}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{\operatorname{acos} \alpha_1}{\cos \alpha_2}$
b
$b \cos \alpha_2= a \cos \alpha_1$

$b =\frac{ a \cos \alpha_1}{\cos \alpha_2}$
