Title: Experiment on Slider Crank

1.1 Objective of the project

1.2 Apparatus

 List the apparatus that used to carry out the experiment

1.3 Theory

 Definition of a Mechanism
 Experiment Principle
 Theoretical Principle

1.4 Experimental Procedure

 List each procedure used during the experiment.

1.5 RESULTS

1)sample Calculations (Theoretical calculation).

2. Plot a graph of experimental crosshead position, x, versus crank angle.

3. Plot on the same graph, a graph of theoretical crosshead position versus crank
angle.
4. On both graphs, show the return and forward stroke.
5. Plot a graph of crosshead velocity versus crank angle. On the graph, show the

1.6 DISCUSSION

1. How well does the experimental result agree with the predictions from the theory?

2. Discuss the motion of the slider and verify that it is indeed a quick return

mechanism.

3)what criteria is required to make the mechanism quick return
