This document contains multiple choice questions and problems related to kinematics of particles and rigid bodies. The multiple choice questions ask about the velocity of a point on a rolling ball, the location of the instant center of zero velocity for a rolling disk, and the relative angular velocities of links in a mechanism. The problems solve for velocities and angular velocities of points on rolling and rotating bodies using kinematic equations and principles of instant centers of rotation. References for vector mechanics and dynamics textbooks are provided.
