In the figure shown the acceleration of A is, `vec(a)_(A) = 15 hat (i) + 15 hat (j)` then the acceleration of B is (A remains in contact in B) A. `6 hat(i)`B. `-15 hat(i)`C. `10 hat(i)`D. `-5 hat(i)`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Let acceleration of B `vec(a)_(B)=a_(B) hat(i)`
Then acceleration of A w.r.t.
`B=vec(a)_(A)-vec(a)_(R)=(15-a_(B))hat(i)+15 hat(j)`
This acceleration must be along the inclined pplane
so `tan 37^(@)=15/(15-a_(B))rArr 3/4=15/(15-a_(B)) a_(B)=-5`
`rArr vec(a)_(R)=-5hat(i)`
