Under which of the following conditions is Coriolis component encountered in the relative acceleration of two points ? 1. The two points are coincident but on different links. 2. The point on one link traces a path on the other link. 3. The link that contains the path rotates. Select the correct answer using the code given below : Correct Answer 1, 2 and 3

Explanation:

Coriolis component of acceleration:

  • When a point on one link is sliding along another rotating link such as in the quick return motion mechanism, then the Coriolis component of acceleration comes into account.
  • It is the tangential component of the acceleration of the slider with respect to the coincident point on the link.

It can be encountered in various cases such as:

1. The two points are coincident but on different links.

2. The point on one link traces a path on the other link.

3. The link that contains the path rotates.
