mechanisms. You will have noticed that the velocity diagram is built up steadily, one point at a time. Any mechanism that you will be faced with on
to see that the key ideas that you need, to solve even a complicated mechanism, can be summarized into only three problem elements shown in Figure 58. U you arc comfortable with these thnc problem-solving elements then you will have no trouble with velocity diagrams.

The velocity of B on the rigid link BC is known. The velocity of C relative to B has to be simply tangential (TAN) so c must be on a Line through b
sn (m
Two links slide relative to each other, and the velocity of the point B on one is known. The point C on the other link, which is at this instant coincident with B, must have a velocity relative to B which is pure sliding.
The velocities of two points B and C on a body arc known; find the third. If the thrce points are in a straight lie, then usc proportion. If they are not,
