Side note : It's a general motion (rotation + translation)
Hints: Step 1: Find the instantaneous centre of rotation (ICR) which you would have worked on before. Step 2: The angular velocity would be in the ratio \(r_1\omega 1=r_2\omega_2 \) by equating the displacements at the junction point B.
The instantaneous center of rotation, can't find it here. |dw:1480079484351:dw|
I found the speed of b Vb = 12 * 0.6 = 7.2 m/s
Excellent, that means you know your ICR. Yes, so the ICR can be considered stationary at C.
so Vc = 0 ?
VB = W(BC) * CB W(BC) = 7.2/ 1.2 = 6 rad /s ?
Yes, the instantaneous velocity Vc=0 because the motion of point B is perpendicular to both A and C.
so when two velocities are perpendicular and the perpendicular in the velocity vector intersect one of them , it's the ICR
yes, and \(\omega_{BC}=0.6*12/1.2=6 \) rad/s.
Thanks, I will continue solving the problems.
Very good! Please post in the engineering section (I suppose you're doing engineering mechanics) and post a link here if you want the crowd to see your problem. I will be out most of the day. If you have other questions, try tagging @rvc if you need help from someone who knows this stuff!
