Question 2: At point P1, using (a P1 )n = yields the speed of tape
rC
v = v P1 = (a P1 )n rc = 40 × 0.1 = 2m / s
Since v = v P1 = v P2 (no slip for the tape in the pulley system), thus
(a P1 )t = (a P2 )t = 30m / s 2
a P1 = ( a P1 ) t2 + (a P1 ) 2n = 30 2 + 40 2 = 50m / s 2

a P2 = ( a P2 ) 2t + ( a P2 ) 2n = (a P2 ) 2t + ( ) 2 = 30 2 + ( ) = 85.4m / s 2

Thus v A / B = 875 km / h

From the acceleration diagram of car A, (a A ) t = 5m / s 2 and ( a A )n = v A = 10 = 1m / s 2
r 100
Hence the total acceleration of car A a A = ( a A )t2 + ( a A ) 2n = 5 2 + 12 = 5.1m / s 2

From the geometry, α = 180o − ( β + 45o ) = 56.3o
Using the rule of cosine a A2 / B = a A2 + a B2 − 2a Aa B cos 56.3 = 5.12 + 22 − 2 × 5.1 × 2 × cos 56.3
Thus a A / B = 4 .32 m / s 2
Using the rule of cosine cos(180 − θ ) = aB + a A / B − a A = 2 + 4.32 − 5.1 = −0.19

Hence θ = 180 o − 100 .952 o = 79 . 0 o ( θ)
