Introduction
Displacement: rp' P'
Consider the displacement of a point from
position P (represented by rp) to P' r
y
(represented by rp'), in the x-y coordinate p
P
system. The change in the position of the x
rp
point, r, is found by: O
r = rp- rp (1)
Equation (1) is a vector equation which can
be resolved into the two coordinates, and
solved for the unknown displacement
(magnitude and direction) provided that
both magnitudes and directions of rp and rp'
are defined.
2
Velocity
Consider the motion of a point from
position P to P' during a time period of t rp' P'
as shown in the figure. The change is
position is give by r. r
The velocity is defined as the change in y
p
position with respect to time, and we can x

define the average velocity O

When the time change becomes very
small, the limit is taken to get the real
(instant) velocity:

Methods for Solution
Solution for the unknown quantities in a certain mechanism can be
obtained by different methods:
Analytical Methods:
Trigonometry Analysis
Considering the geometry: magnitudes and Angles of each vector
Vector Algebra
Standard vector analysis: addition and subtraction of vectors
Complex Algebra
Representation of vectors as complex numbers consisting of
magnitudes and angles.
Graphical methods: Using graphical tools.
5
Complex Algebra Method
The vector is represented as a
complex number which includes the
magnitude and direction of the vector.
r = r e j jr sin r
= r cos +j r sin
Where r: magnitude of r;
: Direction of r (from +ve x-axis);
j: (-1)1/2; r cos
and e: Base of the natural logarithm.
To get velocity, differentiate the position
vector.
To get acceleration, differentiate the
velocity vector.
