Multiple choice

Directions: Carry One Mark Each.

In the figure, link 2 rotates with constant angular velocity $\omega_2$. A slider link 3 moves outwards with a constant relative velocity VQ/p, where Q is a point on slider 3 and P is a point on link 2. The magnitude and direction of Coriolis component of acceleration are

  1. 2 $\omega_2$VQ/P; direction of VQ/P rotated by 90o in the direction of $\omega_2$
  2. $\omega_2$VQ/P; direction of VQ/P rotated by 90o in the direction of $\omega_2$
  3. 2 $\omega_2$ VQ/P; direction of VQ/P rotated by 90o opposite to the direction of $\omega_2$
  4. $\omega_2$VQ/P; direction of VQ/P rotated by 90o opposite to the direction of $\omega_2$
