A crank-slider mechanism is constructed so that the slider operates in a horizontal plane 3 inches below the horizontal plane in which O2 falls. O2B = 4.5 inches (crank; O2 is pivot) BC = 12 inches (coupler). Please analyze the mechanism and provide the following: -When the mechanism is in the extended position, what is the distance between the crank pivot point and the slider joint? -When the mechanism is in the collapsed position, what is the distance between the crank pivot point and the slider joint? -What is the stroke of the slider? -When the mechanism is in the extended position, what is the horizontal distance between the crank pivot point and the slider joint? -When the mechanism is in the collapsed position, what is the horizontal distance between the crank pivot point and the slider joint?
