Two coplanar discs, of radii 0.5 m and 0.3 m , rotate about their centres \(A\) and \(B\) respectively, where \(A B = 0.8 \mathrm {~m}\). At time \(t\) seconds the angular speed of the larger disc is \(\frac { 1 } { 2 } t \mathrm { rad } \mathrm { s } ^ { - 1 }\) (see diagram). There is no slipping at the point of contact. For the instant when \(t = 2\), find
- the angular speed of the smaller disc,
- the magnitude of the acceleration of a point \(P\) on the circumference of the larger disc, and the angle between the direction of this acceleration and \(P A\).
