Problem:

A four-bar linkage is shown below. The crank OA, the connecting rod AB and the bar BC are 20mm, 120mm and 60mm long, respectively. The crank rotates at a speed of 60 rpm and the centre distance OC is 90mm.
At the instant shown, determine:

1) The velocity of B
2) The angular velocity of BC
3) The angular velocity of the connecting rod AB.

Solution:

Remark: in the original text of problem, first question refers to point C, but it cannot be like that, because C is fix (like point O) and the ...
