Question 1

What is the formula used to calculate piston acceleration in a Slider-Crank Mechanism?

  • a_p = rฯ‰^2cos(ฮธ)
  • a_p = rฯ‰^2(cosฮธ + (r/l)cos(2ฮธ))
  • a_p = mฯ‰^2r

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Focus on the components affecting acceleration.

Question 2

True or False: The inertial force is directed in the same direction as the acceleration.

  • True
  • False

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Think about the forces resisting motion.
