Theory of Machines Miscellaneous

  1. In the figure, link 2 rotates with constant angular velocity ω2. A slider link 3 moves outwards with a constant relative velocity VQ/P, where Q is a point on slider 3 and P is a point on link 2. The magnitude and direction of Coriolis component of acceleration is given by
    1. 2 VQ/P, direction of VQ/P rotated by 90° in the direction ω2
    2. ω2 VQ/P; direction of VQP rotated by 90° in the direction ω2
    3. 2 VQ/P, direction of VQ/P rotated by 90° opposite to the direction of ω2
    4. ω2 VQ/P; direction of VQ/P rotated by 90° opposite to the direction ω2
Correct Option: A

Direction is obtained by rotating velocity vector through 90º in the direction of rotation of the link.
