The chain of length L and mass ρ per unit length is released from rest on the smooth horizontal surface with a negligibly small overhang x to initiate motion. Determine (a) the acceleration a as a function of x, (b) the tension T in the chain at the smooth corner as a function of x, and (c) the velocity v of the last link A as it reaches the corner.
