Problem 1: The angular velocity and angular acceleration of bar 𝐴𝐵 are
𝜔
2 rad/s and 𝛼
10 rad/sec2. The dimensions of the rectangular
plate are 1 𝑚 2 𝑚. What are the angular velocity and angular
accelerations of the rectangular plate?
Problem 2: Consider the slide crank mechanism shown. If
𝜃 50 and bar 𝑂𝑄 undergoes constant clock-wise angular
velocity of 1 rad/sec, calculate the acceleration of sleeve 𝑃.
Problem 3: For the robot manipulator shown, arm 𝐴𝐵 has constant
clockwise angular velocity of 0.8 rad/s. It is desired for point 𝐷 to have
zero velocity and zero acceleration. What are the necessary angular
velocities and angular acceleration of arms 𝐵𝐶 and 𝐶𝐷. The motion is
planar.
Problem 4: If 𝜔
12 rad/s and 𝛼
100 rad/sec2, what are the
angular accelerations of bars 𝐵𝐶 and 𝐶𝐷?.
Problem 5: The 1 m diameter disk rolls and point 𝐵 of the 1 m
long bar slides, on the plane surface. Determine the angular
acceleration of the bar and the acceleration of point 𝐵.
