Theory of Machines Miscellaneous

  1. In a certain slider-crank mechanism, lengths of crank and connecting rod are equal. If the crank rotates with a uniform angular speed of 14 rad/s and the crank length is 300 mm, the maximum acceleration of the slider (in m/s2) is _________.
    1. 112.6 m/s²
    2. 117 m/s²
    3. 117.6 m/s²
    4. 7.6 m/s²
Correct Option: C

amax = 2rω²
(where θ = 0) i.e at Inner dead centre
= 2 × 0.3 × 14²
amax = 117.6 m/s²
