TRANSLATIONAL MOTION
GENERAL MOTION
In this case, the body undergoes both
translation and rotation.
rotation Translation
occurs within a plane and rotation
occurs about an axis perpendicular to
this plane.

C
The wheel and crank (A and B)
undergo rotation about a fixed axis. In this case, both axes of
rotation are at the location of the pins and perpendicular to the plane
of the figure.
The piston (C) undergoes rectilinear translation since it is

The
h connecting

undergoes curvilinear translation, since it will remain horizontal as
it moves along a circular path.
The connecting rod (E) undergoes general plane motion, as it will
both translate and rotate.

2. Express each of the velocity vectors in terms of their i,
j, k components and solve vB = vA + x rB/A.
EXAMPLE 1 (continued)
Solution:
vB = vA + AB x rB/A
vB i = -2 j + ( k x (0.2 sin 45 i - 0.2 cos 45 j ))
vB i = -22 j + 0.2
0 2 sin 45 j + 00.22 cos 45 i
Equating the i and j components gives:
vB = 0.2 cos 45
0 = -2 + 0.2 sin 45
Solving:
= 14.1 rad/s or AB = 14.1 rad/s k
vB = 2 m/s or vB = 2 m/s i

Solution:
Link CB. Write the relative-velocity
equation:
vB = vC + CB x rB/C
vB i = -2 j + CB k x (0.2 i - 0.2 j )
vB i = -2 j + 0.2 CB j + 0.2 CB i

EXAMPLE 1 (continued)
Since points A and B both move
along straight-line paths,
aA = 3 (cos 45 i - sin 45 j) m/s

BODIES IN CONTACT
Consider two bodies in contact with one another without slipping,
where the points in contact move along different paths.

( t ) moves along

a straight
t i ht line,
li
while point A, on the rim of the cylinder, moves along a curved
path called a cycloid. If and are known, the relative velocity
and acceleration equations can be applied to these points, at the
instant A is in contact with the ground.

EXAMPLE 2 (continued)
Now, apply the relative acceleration equation between points
O and B.
aB = aO + x rB/O 2rB/O
aB = -2i + (4k) x (0.5i) (6)2(0.5i)
= (-20i + 2j) m/s2
Now do the same for point A.
aA = aO + x rA/O 2rA/O
aA = -2i + (4k) x (0.5i) (6)2(0.5j)
= (-4i 18j) m/s2

Solving:
aB = 2.64 m/s2
AB = 5.20 rad/s2
vC = -50 j m/s
