- Both angular and relative velocity
💡 Hint: Consider the formula you learned about!
Question 2
True or False: The Coriolis effect is ignored in most mechanical systems.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Think about when we need to consider this component.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
In a machine with a rotating arm, the arm's angular velocity is 4 rad/s. A point on the edge of the arm slides with a relative velocity of 3 m/s. Calculate the Coriolis acceleration and discuss how this could affect the machine's operation.
💡 Hint: Use the formula carefully and think about the implications of high acceleration in the design.
Question 2
A slotted arm mechanism operates at an angular velocity of 5 rad/s. If a slider on this arm suddenly increases its relative velocity to 5 m/s, calculate the Coriolis component and theorize how this change might impact performance.
💡 Hint: Ensure you use the formula for acceleration correctly and consider the mechanical consequences.
