The link B weighs 0.80 lb with center of mass 2.20 in. from O-O and has a radius of gyration about O-O of 2.76 in. The link is welded to the steel tube and is free to rotate about the fixed horizontal shaft at O-O. The tube weighs 1.84 lb. If the tube is released from rest with the link in the horizontal position, calculate the initial angular acceleration α of the assembly and the corresponding reaction O exerted by the shaft on the link.
