Question: 2 . ( A ) car engine with piston geometry illustrated in Figure ( Q 2 ) has its crank

2.\( A \) car engine with piston geometry illustrated in Figure \( Q 2\) has its crank \( A B \) rotating about \( A \) with constant anticlockwise angular velocity 1000 rpm . The crank length \( A B \) is 7 cm , the connecting rod length \( B C \) is 14 cm and the piston is constrained to move vertically. At the position shown:
(a) Draw a simplified sketch of the velocities relating to the crank, connecting rod and piston.
(b) What angular velocity does the connecting rod have (in rad/s)?
\(46.83\mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}\)
(c) Draw a simplified sketch of the accelerations relating to the same three components.
(d) What angular acceleration does the connecting rod have (in \(\mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}^{2}\))?
