Q1: Describe the method to find the velocity of a point on a link whose direction (or
path) is known and the velocity of some other point on the same link in magnitude
and direction is given.
ANS 1: by Relative Velocity Method The relative velocity method is based upon
the relative velocity of the various points of the link ,Consider two points A and B
on a link . Let the absolute velocity of the point A i.e. vA is known in magnitude and
direction and the absolute velocity of the point B i.e. vB is known in direction only.
Then the velocity of B may be determined by drawing the velocity diagramas .
Q2: Explain how the velocities of a slider and the connecting rod are obtained in a
slider crankmechanism.
ANS,2 : A slider crank mechanism is shown below (a). The slider A is attached to
the connecting rod AB. Let the radius of crank OB be r and let it rotates in a
clockwise direction, about the point O with uniform angular velocity rad/s.
Therefore, the velocity of B i.e. vB is known in magnitude and direction. The slider
reciprocates along the line of stroke AO. The velocity of the slider A (i.e. vA) may
be determined by relative velocity method as discussed below :

Q3 : Define rubbing velocity at a pin joint. What will be the rubbing velocity at pin
joint when the two links move in the same and opposite directions ?
ANS 3 : The rubbing velocity is defined as
the algebraic sum between the angular velocities of
the two links which are connected by pin joints,
multiplied by the radius of the pin.Consider two links
OA and OB connected by a pin joint at O as shown
Let w1 = Angular velocity of the link OA or
the angular velocity of the point A with respect to O.w2 = Angular velocity of the
link OB or the angular velocity of the point B with respect to O, and r = Radius of the
pin. According to the definition, Rubbing velocity at the pin joint O = (w1 – w2) r, if
the links move in the same direction = (w1 + w2) r, if the links move in the opposite
direction .
Q4 :What is the difference betweenideal mechanical advantage and actual
mechanical advantage ?
ANS 4 : 1- Ideal mechanical advantage : FA × vA = FB × vB , = 100 %
( neglecting effect of feiction )
If we consider the effect of friction, less resistance will be overcome with the given
effort.Therefore the actual mechanical advantage will be less.
Let : = Efficiency of the mechanism.
2- Actual mechanical advantage,
≠ 100 %
