Question:

A slider-crank mechanism is shown in Fig. 1.120. Derive an expression for the motion of the piston \(P\) in terms of the crank length \(r\), the connecting-rod length \(l\), and the constant angular velocity of the crank \(\omega\).

a. Discuss the feasibility of using the mechanism for the generation of harmonic motion.

b. Find the value of \(I / r\) for which the amplitude of every higher harmonic is smaller than that of the first harmonic by a factor of at least 25 .
