Transcribed Image Text:

The four bar mechanism shown in Figure 2 has links of lengths OA = 100 mm, AB= 260 mm, BC = 180 mm, and the distances OD = 60 mm, OC = 180 mm and AD = 80 mm. If link OA rotates counter clockwise at a constant rate of 10 rads/sec, determine the angular velocities of the links AB and BC. Hint: [8 marks] use VA VB+WAB X TA/B. D' B Figure 2: This Figure relates to Question 2 (b) Determine the acceleration of the point A on the four bar mechanism shown in Figure 2. (c) Determine the angular accelerations of the links AB and BC.

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

SOLUTION To determine the angular velocities of the links AB and BC in the fourbar mechanism we can use the velocity equation vA vB AB rAB where vA is ... View the full answer
