    How to calculate the speed of this umbrella extension arm?

    We did try to do it with trig and calculus, but that gave us the wrong answear. We wrote the formulas in Python and plotted them and compared to actuall paths on Solidworks. The tutor said we should find all 6 instantaneous center of rotation and try using them.

    How to calculate the speed of this umbrella extension arm?

    TL;DR Summary: Have a university project where we are calculating the speed of the arm at the end. I need some help on where to start on the calculations. We have tried to determine instantaneous center of rotation for the device. We want to find the linear velocioty of point B. There is a...
