The centre of gravity of a coupler link in a four bar chain mechanism will experience.

The centre of gravity of a coupler link in a four bar chain mechanism will experience. Correct Answer Both linear and angular acceleration

Concept:

Coupler: a link or a rod that is transmitting the power between two rotating mechanisms or a rotating part and a reciprocating part.

From the above figure, we can see that link  3 is coupler which is transmitting the power between link(4) and link(2).

From the observation, it can be clearly said that the center of gravity of link 3 is having both linear and angular acceleration as link 3 is having linear as well as angular motion.

Hence option(4) is correct.

A 4-bar mechanism with all revolute pairs has link lengths lf = 20 mm, lin = 40 mm, lco = 50 mm and lout = 60 mm. The suffixes 'f', 'in', 'co' and 'out' denote the fixed link, the input link, the coupler and output link respectively. Which one of the following statements is true about the input and output links?
The centre of gravity of a coupler link in a four bar mechanism will experience
Statement I: In four-bar chain, whenever all four links are used, with each of them forming a turning pair, there will be continuous relative motion between the two links of different lengths. Statement II: For a four-bar mechanism, the sum of the shortest and longest link lengths is not greater than the sum of remaining two links.
