2. Consider the 5-1lb bar with length of 2½ feet and width of 2 inches. Small frictionless bearings are mounted to the ends, constraining the motion of the bar to the horizontal x and y slots. The bar starts at rest at positioned at 0= 45°. If an angular acceleration of 3 rad/s² is desired, what moment M must be applied to the bar? What are the reaction forces at A and B at that instant? Additional question: Does the width of the bar matter, or is it appropriate to consider the bar as a slender rod? Consider errors of less than 2% negligible.
