J5110 Mechanics of Machine 2 Test 1 Answer all the questions.

QUESTION 1

O B C

The diagram shows a rocking lever mechanism in which steady rotation of the wheel produces an oscillating motion of the lever OA. Both the wheel and the lever are mounted in fixed centers. The wheel rotates clockwise at a uniform angular velocity () of 200rad/s. For the configuration shown, determine, the angular velocity of the link AB. The lengths of the links are as follows: BC=25mm; AB=100mm; OA=50mm; OC=90mm

QUESTION 2 A piston moving with simple harmonic motion has a velocity of 4m/s when it is 500cm from the center position and a velocity of 2m/s when it is 1 meter from the center. Find the: i. ii. iii. iv. Amplitude Periodic time Maximum velocity Maximum acceleration
