A uniform rod having a mass of 5 kg is pin supported at A from a roller which slides on a horizontal track (roller has no rotation due to multifunction). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the roller and the track is uk = 0.2. If the rod is originally at rest, and a horizontal force of F = 75 N is applied to the roller, determine the acceleration of the roller. Neglect the mass of the roller and its size d in the computations. (Answer: 52.15 m/s2) 0.6 m
