Question 1
A boat is moved from land to water by rolling it across a set of cylindrical airbags.
During the testing of the rod, it is rotated about its central axis. Point P is on the surface of the rod. At time t=0, P is at a point above the horizontal. The linear speed of P is .
The vertical displacement x of P can be modelled with an equation .
Determine the vertical velocity of P at .
