Acceleration Analysis of mechanics
Veloncity of moving body is Vector quantity having magnitude and
direction.
a change in Veloncity over time result in:
Change in magnitude only
Change in direction only
Change in magnitude and direction
The rate of change of velocity with respect to time is known
as acceleration. OD

Note that : if the motion is straight line motion (acceleration
on straight path) , there is only tagential acceleration which is
due to change in the magnitude of velocity.Acceleration of apoint on rigid body or link moving on

Tangential Acceleration of apoint on link
* The magnitude of the tangential acceleration of point A
on a rotating link 2 can be expressed as;

+ It acts in the direction of motion when the velocity
increases or the point accelerates.
* Conversely, it acts in the opposite direction of motion
when the velocity decreases or the point decelerates.Normal Acceleration
Any change in velocity direction creates normal
acceleration, which is always directed toward the center
of rotation.
To understand and drive the general equation for normal
acceleration let as the link below :
Total Acceleration
acceleration analysis is important because inertial
forces result from accelerations.
Inertial forces are proportional to the total acceleration
of a body.
The total acceleration, A, is the vector resultant of the
tangential and normal components. Mathematically,

OnImportant points
«If the body is moving with constant angular veloncity the
tangential acceleration, at=0
+ If the body is moving on straight line then the normal
acceleration an=0
* The normal acceleration is always directed towards the
center point of rotation at a given instants (parallel to the
given link)
* The tangential acceleration is perpendicular to normal
acceleration and directed in the direction of velocity or
angular veloncity or acceleration
Method of ration analysis of links or mechanism:
+ Two methods are available namely analytical and
graphical method.
- We focus on graphical method of solving acceleration
of mechanisms. ~ ——
Graphical method of finding acceleration of points on rigid
links
+ Uses acceleration diagram and constructed using
drawing instrument with suitable scales
+ The solutions are obtained by measurement Jew = lo"
