Solution Summary

This solution uses coriolis acceleration equations to find acceleration.

Solution Preview

Coriolis acceleration = ac = 2 w x (dr/dt)
---> ac = 2wu
Angular velocity = w = 20*2pi rad/min = 20*2pi/60 = 2pi/3 rad/s
u = ds/dt
ds = displacemnt along AB = 20 in - 10 in = 10 in
dt = time lapse = d(theta)/w
d(theta) = rotation = 90-0 = 90 ...

  • " In question 2, you incorrectly add in the $3.00 dividend that was just paid to determine the value of the stock price using the dividend discount model. In question 4 response, it should have also been recognized that dividend discount models are not useful if any of the parameters used in the model are inaccurate. "
