The dimensions of the mechanism shown in the figure are:

O2 A = 17 cm, AB = 35.5 cm, DE = 40 cm, EO2 = 68 cm, O3C = 63 cm,
CB = 22.5 cm, CD = 34 cm, BH = 35.5 cm, O2G= 25 cm, O3G=20 cm

The points D, C, B, H are on the same line.
a) The weights and frictional forces are negligible. When the force F is 50 kN, find the required
torque on the link (2). First draw free body diagrams of all links.
b) The weights forces are negligible. Cosider that friction coefficient is 0.1, pin radius for revolute
joints is 1 cm and height of link 6 is 10 cm. Draw free body diagrams of all links. When the
force F is 50 kN, find the number of unknowns and write required number of equations to solve
these unknowns.
