Question

Block 2 slides outward on link 1 at a uniform velocity of 6 m/s6\text{ m/s} as shown in the figure. Link 1 is rotating at a constant angular velocity of 20 radian/s20\text{ radian/s} counterclockwise. The magnitude of the total acceleration (in m/s2\text{m/s}^2) of point P of the block with respect to fixed point O is __________
A diagram showing a block (2) sliding on a link (1). Link 1 is rotating about point O with angular velocity $20\text{ rad/s}$. Block 2 is at a distance of $100\text{ mm}$ from O and sliding at $6\text{ m/s}$.
