Problem Set

The document contains 15 problems related to determining angular velocities, angular accelerations, linear velocities, and linear accelerations of links in mechanisms where one or more links are rotating or translating with constant angular/linear velocities or accelerations. The problems involve links in mechanisms such as slotted guide rods, rotating rods connected to collars or blocks, cranks and connecting rods in engines, and cams and followers. Key kinematic relationships between angular and linear motion are applied to solve for unknown velocities and accelerations at given time instances defined by angular positions of links.
