Coubler the connecting rod BC in a slidercrank linkage Deter

Coubler the connecting rod BC in a slider-crank linkage. Determine the magnitude the relative acceleration of point of C with respect to point B, A_C B, If the tangential components of this acceleration are at_eB = 300

Solution

the tangential component of Ac/b   = 300 mm/s^2

the normal component of Ac/b   = 400 mm/s^2

Therefore

Magnitude of Ac/b   = sqrt( (tangential component of Ac/b)^2 + (normal component of Ac/b)^2 )

                             = (300 ^2 + 400^2)   = 500 mm/s^2   (option C is correct)
