PART IV: ANALYTICAL LINKAGE SYNTHESIS [10 points]
In class, this two-position analytical motion synthesis example for which P and Q are specified was partially solved for the left side only. This part of the exam asks you to repeat the methodology for the RIGHT side. Shown here is a figure that identifies the labeling of vectors and angles. Triangle ABP represents characteristic points on a rigid coupler.
12. [1 point] TRUE or FALSE: The angle between vectors S and S has the same value as the angle given between vectors Z and Z.
13. [2 points] Write the vector loop equation for the RIGHT side of the mechanism, in a way that would enable the determination of unknown lengths u and s, while also achieving the required displacement p.
B:
UI
14. [3 points] Now rewrite the same equation using complex polar notation (as in ae). Use the lowercase expressions for lengths u (u is the length of U) and s (s is the length of S), and pz is the length of P. Use angles from the figure. equation. For the limited time of this exam, you are not being asked to solve for any variables of interest, only to extract the need to simplify with factoring, as long as each scalar equation is legitimate and correct. independent scalar equations. Remember to write equations set equal to zero and also to eliminate j wherever appropriate.
