The mechanism produces intermittent motion of link AB.
The sprocket S is mounted on a shaft which is separate
from a collinear shaft attached to AB at A. The pin at C
is attached to one of the chain links such that it moves
vertically downward. The sprocket S is turning with an
angular acceleration \alpha _(S)=2ra(d)/(s^(2)) and has an angular
velocity \omega _(S)=8ra(d)/(s) at the instant shown. (Figure 1)
Determine the angular velocity of link AB at this instant measured clockwise.
Express your answer in radians per second to three significant figures. Enter positive value if the angular
velocity is clockwise and negative value if the angular velocity is counterclockwise.

Determine the angular acceleration of link AB at this instant measured clockwise.
Express your answer in radians per second squared to three significant figures. Enter positive value if the
angular acceleration is clockwise and negative value if the angular acceleration is counterclockwise.
