Tutorial 7b Acceleration

This document contains problems about analyzing the acceleration of components in various mechanisms where a crank rotates at a constant or changing angular velocity or acceleration. The problems involve determining linear and angular velocities and accelerations of connecting rods, sliding blocks, and other links in slider-crank, four-bar, and quick-return mechanisms. Dimensions and rotational speed or acceleration of the driving crank are provided, and the question asks the student to calculate resulting velocities and accelerations of other parts based on the given configuration and motions.

TUTORIAL 7 (B)
ACCELERATION ANALYSIS

1. The crank of a slider crank mechanism rotates


clockwise at a constant speed of 300 rpm. The
crank is 150 mm and the connecting rod is 600
mm long. Determine:
a. linear velocity and acceleration of the
midpoint of the connecting rod, and
b. angular velocity and angular acceleration of
the connecting rod, at a crank angle of 45° from
inner dead center position.

2. An engine mechanism is shown in Fig. The crank


CB is 100 mm and the connecting rod BA is 300
mm with center of gravity G, 100 mm from B. In
the position shown, the crankshaft has a speed of
75 rad/s and an angular acceleration of 1200 rad/s2.
Determine:
a. velocity of G and angular velocity of AB, and
b. acceleration of G and angular acceleration of
AB.

3. The dimensions and configuration of the four bar


mechanism, shown in the figure are as follows: P1A = 300
mm; P2B = 360 mm; AB = 360mm, and P1P2 = 600 mm.
The angle AP1P2 = 60°. The crank P1A has an angular
velocity of 10 rad/s and an angular acceleration of 30
rad/s2, both clockwise. Determine the angular velocities
and angular accelerations of P2B, and AB and the velocity
and acceleration of the joint B.

4 In the mechanism, as shown in Figure, the


crank OA rotates at 20 rpm counter
clockwise and gives motion to the sliding
blocks B and D. The dimensions of the
various links are OA = 300 mm; AB =
1200 mm; BC = 450 mm and CD = 450
mm.

5. A mechanism of a crank and slotted lever quick return motion is shown in figure. If the crank rotates
counter clockwise at 120 r.p.m., determine for the configuration shown, the velocity and acceleration
of the ram D. Also, determine the angular acceleration of the slotted lever. Crank, AB = 150 mm;
Slotted arm, OC = 700 mm and link CD = 200 mm.

6. The driving crank AB of the quick-return mechanism, as shown in figure below revolves at a uniform
speed of 200 r.p.m. Find the velocity and acceleration of the tool-box R, in the position shown, when
the crank makes an angle of 60° with the vertical line of centers PA. What is the acceleration of
sliding of the block at B along the slotted lever PQ?
