End B of the 2 m long rigid rod AB is constrained to move horizontally in the slot as shown in the figure and has a velocity of 1.0 i m/s. The angular velocity of the rod at the instant shown is 2 rad/s. The unit vectors along x and y directions are denoted respectively as i and j. The velocity of point A in m/s is then given by
