If the angular velocity of a link in a mechanism is zero, does this imply that the angular acceleration of that link is also zero? The short answer to that question is NO. If ω(t) represents the ...

Discussion and hints: In this problem, we know both the magnitude and direction for each of the velocity and acceleration vectors for the center of mass G. We know that the unit tangent vector et is ...

Everything CCEA students need to know about velocity and acceleration for GCSE Physics.

In a valid follower motion, the velocity and acceleration will remain continuous throughout the cycle — otherwise the device produces an impossible, infinite amount of jerk.
