Answer

$$ v_C=1.52 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} $$

Work Step by Step

$$ \begin{aligned} & T_1+V_1=T_2+V_2 \\ & {[0+0+0]+[0]=\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{1}{2}(3)(0.03)^2\right] \omega_A^2+\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{1}{2}(10)(0.1)^2\right] \omega_B^2+\frac{1}{2}(2)\left(v_C\right)^2-2(9.81)(0.5)} \\ & v_C=\omega_B(0.1)=0.03 \omega_A \end{aligned} $$ Thus, $$ \begin{aligned} & \omega_B=10 v_C \\ & \omega_A=33.33 v_C \end{aligned} $$ Substituting and solving yields, $$ v_C=1.52 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} $$
