The uniform thin rod AB is pin-connected to the slider S, which moves along the frictionless guide, and to the disk D, which rolls without slip over the horizontal surface. The pins at A and B are frictionless, and the system is released from rest. Neglect the vertical dimension of S.

Figure P8.43

Letting L = 4.5 ft and R = 1.2 ft, assuming that AB is of negligible mass, the weight of S is WS = 3 lb, D is a uniform disk of weight WD = 9 lb, and the system is released from the angle θ0 = 67°, determine the speed of the slider S when it strikes the ground.
