KINEMATICS OF MACHINERY

PART-A
1. What the difference types of kinematics pairs based on the relative motion between them.
2. Differentiate machine and structure.
3. What are the types of instantaneous centres?
4. Define rubbing velocity at a pin joint.
5. Define prime circle and pitch curve of a cam.
6. List the methods used to reduce the pressure angle of a cam.
7. What do you mean by spiral gears and hypoid gears ?
8. Distinguish cycloid and involute profiles of gears tooth.
9. Define lead and pitch of a screw thread.
10. State the two assumptions based on which the bearing are designed?
PART-B
1. a) State whether the following links shown in fig. 11 (a, b, c and e) are mechanisms with
one degree of freedom. If not make suitable changes but the number of links should not
be varied more than one

(or)
b) i) For the kinematics linkages shown Fig. 11 (b) (i) calculate the (i) total number of
