1. The lengths of various links are: AD = 125 mm; A B = 62.5 mm; BC = CD = 75 mm. If the
link A B rotates at a uniform speed of 10 r.p.m. in the clockwise direction,
a) Locate all the instantaneous centers for a four-bar mechanism. [2 points]
b) Find the angular velocity of the links BC and CD. [3 points]

2. In the toggle mechanism shown in Figure 2, the slider D is constrained to move on a horizontal
path. The crank OA is rotating in the counter-clockwise direction at a speed of 180 r.p.m.
increasing at the rate of 50 rad/s2. The dimensions of the various links are as follows: OA =
180 mm ; CB = 240 mm ; AB = 360 mm ; and BD = 540 mm. For the given configuration, find
A. Velocity of slider D and angular velocity of BD, (5 pts) and
B. Acceleration of slider D and angular acceleration of BD. (5 pts)
