The velocity of end ‘A’ of rigid rod placed between two smooth vertical walls moves with velocity ‘u’ along vertical direction. The velocity of end ‘B’ of that rod, rod always remains in contact with the vertical walls .

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Since rod is rigid, its length can’t increase.
velocity of approach of A and B point of rod is zero.
⇒ u sin θ – v cos θ = 0
⇒ v = u tan θ
