- 2. Sketch and explain any two inversions of single slider crank chain.
- 3. In a slider crank mechanism, in fig. 1. the length of crank OB and connecting rod AB are 125 mm and 500 mm respectively. The centre of gravity G of the connecting rod is 275 mm from the slider A. The crank speed is 600 r.p.m. clockwise. When the crank has turned 45° from the inner dead centre position, determine:

- b) Velocity of the point G, and
- c) Angular velocity of the connecting rod AB.
- 4. In a pin jointed four bar mechanism ABCD, the lengths of various links are as follows: AB = 25 mm; BC = 87.5 mm; CD = 50 mm and AD = 80 mm. The link AD is fixed and the angle BAD = 135°. If the velocity of B is 1.8m/s in the clockwise direction, find velocity and acceleration of the midpoint of BC,
Fig 2 - 5. What are straight line mechanisms? Describe one type of exact straight line motion mechanism with the help of a sketch.
- 6. A pinion having 20 involute teeth of module pitch 6mm rotates at 200 r.p.m. and transmits 1.5 kW to a gear wheel having 50 teeth. The addendum on both the wheels is 1/4 of the circular pitch. The angle of obliquity is 20°. Find
- a) The length of the path of approach.

- a) Determine the width of a 9.75 mm thick leather belt required to transmit 15 kW from a motor running at 900 r.p.m. The diameter of the driving pulley of the motor is 300 mm. The driven pulley runs at 300 r.p.m. and the distance between the centres of two pulleys is 3 meters. The density of the leather is 1000 kg/m³. The maximum allowable stress in the leather is 2.5 MPa. The coefficient of friction between the leather and pulley is 0.3. Assume open belt drive and neglect the sag and slip of the belt.(9)
- b) Briefly explain the following:
- i) Slip of the belt
- ii) Creep of the belt. (6)
