Side note : It's a general motion (rotation + translation)

OpenStudy (mathmate):

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.

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

The instantaneous center of rotation, can't find it here. |dw:1480079484351:dw|

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

I found the speed of b Vb = 12 * 0.6 = 7.2 m/s

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Excellent, that means you know your ICR. Yes, so the ICR can be considered stationary at C.

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

so Vc = 0 ?

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

VB = W(BC) * CB W(BC) = 7.2/ 1.2 = 6 rad /s ?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Yes, the instantaneous velocity Vc=0 because the motion of point B is perpendicular to both A and C.

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

so when two velocities are perpendicular and the perpendicular in the velocity vector intersect one of them , it's the ICR

OpenStudy (mathmate):

yes, and \(\omega_{BC}=0.6*12/1.2=6 \) rad/s.

OpenStudy (trojanpoem):

Thanks, I will continue solving the problems.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

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!
