Problem:
Establish the location of the instantaneous center of zero...

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1

We are given the systems with various dimensions.


We are asked to determine the location of the instantaneous center of zero velocity for finding the velocity of point B.


 
Step 2

(a)


The diagram of the system is shown as:

We have the radius of disk is $R = 2\;{\rm{m}}$.

We have the angular velocity of disk is $\omega = 8\;{\rm{rad/s}}$.

We have the angle of point B from horizontal is $\theta = 45^\circ $


 
Step 3

The formula to calculate the velocity at point B is,

\[{v_B} = \omega \times r\]
 
Step 4

The formula to calculate the distance r is,

\[{r^2} = {\left( {R\cos \theta } \right)^2} + {\left( {R + R\sin \theta } \right)^2}\]
 
Step 5

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[\begin{array}{l} {r^2} = {\left( {2\cos 45^\circ \;{\rm{m}}} \right)^2} + {\left( {2\;{\rm{m}} + 2{\rm{sin}}45^\circ \;{\rm{m}}} \right)^2}\\ r = \sqrt {13.6\;{{\rm{m}}^2}} \\ r = 3.7\;{\rm{m}} \end{array}\]
 
Step 6

(b)


The diagram of the system is shown as:

We have the position vector of point A is ${r_A} = \left( {2i} \right)\;{\rm{m}}$.

We have the angular velocity is $\omega = - 4k\;{\rm{rad/s}}$.

We have the vertical distance of point B from instantaneous center is $r = 0.3\;{\rm{m}}$.


 
Step 7

The formula to calculate the velocity at point A is,

\[{v_A} = \omega \times {r_A}\]
 
Step 8

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[\begin{array}{l} {v_A} = \left( { - 4k} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}} \times \left( {2i} \right)\;{\rm{m}}\\ {v_A} = \left( { - 8j} \right)\;{\rm{m/s}} \end{array}\]

Here, negative sign shows that the direction of velocity is downward.


 
Step 9

The formula to calculate the velocity at point B is,

\[{v_B} = r\omega \]
 
Step 10

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[{v_B} = \left( {0.3\;{\rm{m}}} \right)\omega \]
 
Step 11

(c)


The diagram of the system is shown as:

Images


We have the position vector of point A is ${r_A} = \left( {0.5j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}$.

We have the position vector of point A with respect to B is ${r_{BA}} = \left( {1.5\cos 30^\circ i + 1.5\sin 30^\circ j} \right)\;{\rm{m}} = \left( {1.3i + 0.75j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}$ We have the angular velocity is $\omega = - 4k\;{\rm{rad/s}}$.


 
Step 12

The formula to calculate the velocity at point A is,

\[{v_A} = \omega \times {r_A}\]
 
Step 13

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[\begin{array}{l} {v_A} = \left( { - 4k} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}} \times \left( {0.5j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}\\ {v_A} = \left( {2i} \right)\;{\rm{m/s}} \end{array}\]
 
Step 14

The formula to calculate the velocity at point B is,

\[{v_B} = {v_A} + {\omega _{AB}}\left( {{r_{BA}}} \right)\]
 
Step 15

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[\begin{array}{l} {v_B}i = \left( {2i} \right)\;{\rm{m/s}} + \left( {{\omega _{AB}}} \right)\left( {1.3i + 0.75j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}\\ {v_B}i = \left( {2 - 1.3{\omega _{AB}}} \right)i + 0.75{\omega _{AB}}j \end{array}\]

On comparing j coefficients, we get:

\[{\omega _{AB}} = 0\]
 
Step 16

Substitute the value of ${\omega _{AB}}$ in expression of ${v_B}i$.

\[{v_B} = {v_B} = \left( {2i} \right)\;{\rm{m/s}}\]
 
Step 17

(d)


The diagram of the system is shown as:

Images


We have the velocity of point C is ${v_C} = 4\;{\rm{m/s}}$.

We have the distance between point B and C is $y = 1\;{\rm{m}}$.


 
Step 18

The formula to calculate the velocity at point B by using similar triangle theorem is,

\[\frac{{{v_B}}}{y} = \frac{{{v_C}}}{d}\]
 
Step 19

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[\frac{{{v_B}}}{{1\;{\rm{m}}}} = \frac{{4\;{\rm{m/s}}}}{d}\]

Thus, the required instantaneous velocity is drawn and obtained for expression velocity at point B.


 
Step 20

(e)


The diagram of the system is shown as:

Images


We have the position vector of point A is ${r_A} = \left( {0.5j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}$.

We have the angular velocity is $\omega = - 3k\;{\rm{rad/s}}$.


 
Step 21

The formula to calculate the velocity at point A is,

\[{v_A} = \omega \times {r_A}\]
 
Step 22

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[\begin{array}{l} {v_A} = \left( { - 3k} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}} \times \left( {0.5j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}\\ {v_A} = \left( { - 1.5i} \right)\;{\rm{m/s}} \end{array}\]

Here, negative sign shows that the direction of velocity is towards left.

Step 24

(f)


The diagram of the system is shown as:

Images


We have the position vector of point A is ${r_A} = \left( { - 0.5\cos 30^\circ i + 0.5\sin 30^\circ j} \right)\;{\rm{m}} = \left( { - 0.433i + 0.25j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}$.

We have the angular velocity is $\omega = - 6k\;{\rm{rad/s}}$.


 
Step 25

The formula to calculate the velocity at point A is,

\[{v_A} = \omega \times {r_A}\]
 
Step 26

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\[{v_A} = \left( { - 6k} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}} \times \left( { - 0.433i + 0.25j} \right)\;{\rm{m}}\]
