Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 6: Mechanics of Linkages**
Link \( AB \) has an angular velocity of 4.00 rad/s counterclockwise in the position shown in the diagram to the right.
**Objectives:**
a) Calculate the translational velocity vector (magnitude and direction) of point \( C \).
b) Calculate the translational velocity vector (magnitude and direction) of point \( E \).
**Diagram Details:**
- The diagram illustrates a linkage system.
- Link \( AB \) is pivoted at \( A \) and extends to \( B \).
- From \( B \), a horizontal link extends to \( E \).
- There is another link connecting point \( C \) diagonally to point \( D \), forming a 60° angle with the horizontal.
- Key dimensions provided in the system:
- Length \( AB = 4.00'' \)
- Length \( BE = 4.00'' \)
- Length \( BC = 6.00'' \)
- Vertical length from \( A \) to ground \( = 5.00'' \)
- Horizontal distance from \( A \) to \( E \) on the ground \( = 7.50'' \)
- Vertical height from \( D \) to the bottom \( = 2.40'' \)
- Vertical height from the line \( CD \) to \( C \) \( = 3.00'' \)
**Calculation Steps:**
1. **Velocity Calculation for Point \( C \):**
- Use the angular velocity of link \( AB \) and dimensions given to compute the translational velocity at point \( C \).
- Apply the rotational kinematics principles for calculating the velocity vector, considering the counterclockwise motion.
2. **Velocity Calculation for Point \( E \):**
- Similarly, extend the calculations for \( E \).
- Analyze the path and velocity impact due to the mechanics of linkage \( BE \).
**Note:**
For accurate calculations, consider using the properties of rotational motion and vector mathematics.
