Questions and Answers

In the Klien’s acceleration diagram, what does the circle with PC as diameter represent?

  • The circle with PC as diameter represents the velocity of point P
  • The circle with PC as diameter represents the velocity of point N
  • The circle with PC as diameter represents the acceleration of point P (correct)
  • The circle with PC as diameter represents the acceleration of point C

    • How is the acceleration of piston P with respect to crank pin C (aPC) calculated?

  • aPC = ω2 × CP
  • aPC = ω2 × CN (correct)
  • aPC = ω × CP
  • aPC = ω × CN

    • What does o'c' represent in the context of the Klien’s acceleration diagram?

  • Radial component of the acceleration of crosshead or piston P with respect to crank pin C
  • Acceleration of P with respect to O
  • Radial component of the acceleration of crank pin C with respect to O (correct)
  • Tangential component of the acceleration of P with respect to C
