    AB = √(240)² + (160 − 60)²
    = 260 mm
    = = lAO2 + lO2O4 < lAB + lBO4
    = and O2O4 is fixed link. It will act as a crank-rocker mechanism

    Correct Option: B

    AB = √(240)² + (160 − 60)²
    = 260 mm
    = = lAO2 + lO2O4 < lAB + lBO4
    = and O2O4 is fixed link. It will act as a crank-rocker mechanism


Direction: An instantaneous configuration of a four-bar mechanism, whose plane is horizontal, is shown in the figure below. At this instant, the angular velocity and angular acceleration of link O2A are ω = 8 rad/s and α = 0, respectively, and the driving torque (τ) is zero. The link O2A is balanced so that its centre of mass falls at O2.

  1. At the instant considered, what is the magnitude of the angular velocity of O4B?
