02. A hydraulically actuated horizontal slider mechanism is illustrated in figure 2 where the motion of piston C is constrained horizontally. Solve for the following situation where the length of the bar OB is 180 mm and the angle BOC is 30 degrees. a) Graphically construct the mechanism using a scale of 1 mm = 2 mm and measure off the length OA and the angles AOC and OCB. Confirm your measurements using trigonometry. b) If the piston at C is moving to the right at 1.5 m/s at this instant, draw the graphical velocity diagram for the linkages using a scale of 1 cm = 0.3 m/s, and measure the velocity of each point (magnitude and direction). c) From the graphical solution for the velocity of A, measure the velocity Vr of the sliding motion of A with respect to D, and determine if this r velocity component is positive or negative. d) Measure the ve component of the velocity of A and hence calculate the angular velocity of the link OA at this time and determine its direction, clockwise or anti-clockwise. e) Confirm your measurements from (b) to (d) using calculations. f) The acceleration of C is given as 0.6 m/s^2 to the left at this time (ie decelerating, slowing down). Graphically solve and show the acceleration diagram of the mechanism and measure off the acceleration of B and A. g) Subsequently solve for the sliding acceleration f and the angular acceleration 8 of the variable length link A. h) Again, confirm your measurements for (f) and (g) via calculation.
