Problem 7/21

I attached my observer to the top of the disk. I assumed this would make the relative acceleration and velocity equal zero. However, my answer was not even close. I went over my work and checked all my cross products and they seem correct. I was just checking that my assumption that the relative acceleration and velocity will be zero is a correct assumption?

I got the right answer by using the rigid body method. first finding the acceleration for a point "c" at the center of the disk and then using that to find the acceleration of point "b". The actually math is the same as the stuff we did in problem solving.
