    ASSIGNMENT NO. 2 (Velocity, Acceleration and Synthesis of Mechanism)

    Velocity Analysis

    1. State and prove the Kennedy’s theorem as applicable to instantaneous centres in a


    mechanism?
    2. Calculate total no. of I-centre & locate all I-centres (not to the scale).

    3. In a pin jointed four bar mechanism, as shown in Fig., AB = 300 mm, BC = CD = 360 mm,
    and AD = 600 mm. The angle BAD = 60°. The crank AB rotates uniformly at 100 r.p.m.
    Locate all the instantaneous centres and find the angular velocity of the link BC.

    4. Locate all the instantaneous centres of the slider crank mechanism as shown in Fig. The
    lengths of crank OB and connecting rod AB are 100 mm and 400 mm respectively. If the
    crank rotates clockwise with an angular velocity of 10 rad/s, find: 1. Velocity of the slider
    A, and 2. Angular velocity of the connecting rod AB.

    5. A slider crank mechanism, the crank is 480 mm long and rotates at 20 rad/sec in CCW
    direction. The length of connecting rod is 1.6 m. When crank turns 600 from inner dead
    centre, determine velocity of slider and angular velocity of connecting rod.
    6. In a four bar chain ABCD, AD is fixed and is 150 mm long. The crank AB is 40 mm long
    and rotates at 120 r.p.m. clockwise, while the link CD = 80 mm oscillates about D. BC and
    AD are of equal length. Find the angular velocity of link CD when angle BAD = 60°.

    Acceleration Analysis
    7. What is the Coriolis acceleration component? In which case does it occur?

    8. PQRS is a four-bar chain with link PS fixed. The lengths of the links are PQ = 60 mm; QR
    = 175 mm ; RS = 120 mm ; and PS = 200 mm. The crank PQ rotates at 10 rad/s clockwise.
    Draw the velocity and acceleration diagram when angle QPS = 60° and Q and R lie on the
    same side of PS. Find the angular velocity and angular acceleration of links QR and RS.
    9. The crank of a slider crank mechanism rotates clockwise at a constant speed of 300 r.p.m.
    The crank is 150 mm and the connecting rod is 600 mm long. Determine: 1. linear velocity
    and acceleration of the midpoint of the connecting rod, and 2. angular velocity and angular
    acceleration of the connecting rod, at a crank angle of 45° from inner dead centre position.
    Synthesis of Mechanisms
    10. Explain the terms: Function generation, Path generation and Motion generation.
    11. What is Freudestein’s equation?
    12. Design a four-bar mechanism when the motions of the input and output links are governed
    by a function y=x2 and x varies from 0 to 2 with an interval of 1. Assume θ vary from 500
    to 1500 and φ from 800 to 1600.
    13. Design a four link-mechanism if the motions of the input and the output links are governed
    by a function y =x1.5 and x varies from 1 to 4. Assume θ to vary from 300 to 1200 and φ
    from 600 to 1300. The length of the fixed- link is 30 mm. Use Chebychev spacing of
    accuracy points.
