Mechanical Engineering QUESTION #2487
Question 1
The acceleration of node B of a driver link with angular velocity \(\omega\) and angular acceleration \(\alpha=\ddot{\phi}\) has components:
  • \(a_{Bx} = -L_{AB}\omega^2\cos\phi + L_{AB}\alpha\sin\phi\); \(a_{By} = -L_{AB}\omega^2\sin\phi - L_{AB}\alpha\cos\phi\)
  • \(a_{Bx} = -L_{AB}\omega^2\cos\phi - L_{AB}\alpha\sin\phi\); \(a_{By} = -L_{AB}\omega^2\sin\phi + L_{AB}\alpha\cos\phi\)✔️
  • \(a_{Bx} = L_{AB}\alpha\cos\phi\); \(a_{By} = L_{AB}\alpha\sin\phi\)
  • \(a_{Bx} = -L_{AB}\omega^2\cos\phi\); \(a_{By} = -L_{AB}\omega^2\sin\phi\)
Correct Answer Explanation
Differentiating velocity: \(a_{Bx}=-L_{AB}\alpha\sin\phi-L_{AB}\omega^2\cos\phi\) and \(a_{By}=L_{AB}\alpha\cos\phi-L_{AB}\omega^2\sin\phi\).
