Q4 A torque τ=0.1 Nm is applied to link AB as shown with the
mechanism in the horizontal plane and initially at rest. Using work-
energy relations, calculate the angular acceleration of the link AB.
Take moment of inertia of the slotted link about C as IC=0.002 kgm2, τ
moment of inertia of AB IB=0.001 kgm2 and all contacts to be
frictionless.

Q7 Derive the equations of motion of the planar RP robot arm in the horizontal
plane using Newtonian approach. The arm is driven by a torque from a motor
on the hub and a force from the prismatic actuator. Assume the link to be
slender with mass m and length l. Neglect friction, and the mass of the hub
and the end-effector.
