- In the four-rod mechanism. You have a closed polygon, where: a = length of input crank = 1 inch b = length of connecting rod = 2 inches c = length of output crank = 2 inches d = length of fixed rod = 2 inches. By varying the angle θ, the perimeter of the polygon is preserved, but not its area. Determine the angle θ where its maximum area is reached and the minimum area of the polygon.arrow_forwardA vertical pole has a horizontal board attached to it by a bracket. A cable is connected to the top of the pole and is connected to the board a meter from the pole as shown. A box is hanging by a rope from the far end of the board. The cable makes an angle of 0=15.0° with the vertical. The board has a mass of 100 kg. The hanging box has a mass of 50.0 kg. The board is five meters long. a. What is the tension in the cable? b.

Let P be a point on the periphery of the front wheel. One can show that the x and y coordinates of P are described by the following functions of time: x(t) = at + R sin(uot/R) and y(t) = R[1 + cos(vor/R)]. Determine the expressions for the velocity, speed, and accelera- tion of P as functions of time. Vparrow_forwardEngineering Mechanicsarrow_forward
