    The document discusses several concepts related to kinematics and mechanisms: 1) It describes the normal and tangent components of acceleration when an object undergoes pure rotation with constant radius. 2) It briefly mentions the Coriolis effect which occurs when an object experiences both linear and rotational motion independently. 3) It lists force closure and form closure as two methods for constraint in mechanisms, with force closure using springs and form closure using geometry/tracks. 4) It defines the pressure angle in cam mechanisms as the angle between the line perpendicular to the line of contact between cam and follower, and the direction of motion of the follower. The pressure angle is important for force-closed cams.

    Question 1[5 Marks] a) Normal and tangent components of the acceleration When an object performs a pure rotation with

    a constant radius, its acceleration is divided into two components, tangent and normal components, as shown here: Tangent component is 90 to the direction of the link, The Normal component is the opposite direction to the link, Together they are the vector components of the total cceleration

    b) The Coriolis effect The Coriolis Effect is when an object is under linear and rotational motions that are independent of each other! "#amples for this effect include a moving point on a rotating desk, or the inverted $rank %lider! c) Force Closure s! Form Closure

    &orce closure: 'se force, usually through a spring d) "#"F C$M design

    &orm closure: 'se geometry, usually through a track(groove

    )well, *ise, )well, &all $am )esign, which a $"+ ,$ritical "#treme +osition- design method! e) The %ressure angle t the point of contact between the cam and the follower, the transmission of forces between them is determined via the pressure angle! This makes it important, especially for force closed cams! s it can be seen from the figure, it is formed between the line perpendicular to the line of contact ,between follower and cam-, and the direction of the follower!
