Question: Figure P 1 1 - 4 b shows a fourbar linkage and its dimensions in meters. The steel crank and rocker have uniform cross sections

Figure P11-4b shows a fourbar linkage and its dimensions in meters. The steel crank and rocker have uniform cross sections of 50 mm wide by 25 mm thick. The aluminum coupler is 25 mm thick. In the instantaneous position shown, the crank O2A has @ =15 rad/sec and =10 rad/sec2. The horizontal force applied at point P is F =500 N. Find all pin forces and the torque needed to drive the crank at this instant.
