3) A small hydraulic jack is shown below. At this instant, a 10-lb force is applied to the handle. This causes the 3.5 in link to rotate clockwise at a constant rate of \(5\mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}\). The weight of link 2 and 3 are 0.5 lb and 1 lb respectively. Link 4 is 1.5 lb . Determine the following: (use \(\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{G}}=\mathrm{ML}^{2}/12\))
a) The linear acceleration of the piston
b) The inertial force of link 4
c) the pin forces
d) The force developed on the piston due to the hydraulic fluid
e) Solve part d) by using the Energy Equations (Power Balance)
3 ) A small hydraulic jack is shown below. At
