Kinematic Link or Element

Question 1
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following statement is wrong?
A round bar in a round hole form a turning pair
A square bar in a square hole form a sliding pair
A vertical shaft in a foot step bearing forms a successful constraint
All of the mentioned
Explanation:
None
Question 2
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
The example of completely constrained motion is
motion of a piston in the cylinder of a steam engine
motion of a square bar in a square hole
motion of a shaft with collars at each end in a circular hole
all of the mentioned
Explanation:
When the motion between a pair is limited to a definite direction irrespective of the direction of force applied, then the motion is said to be a completely constrained motion. In all the above mechanism, motion is limited, so they all are examples of completely constrained motion.
Question 3
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
A link or element need not to be a rigid body, but it must be a resistant body.
True
False
Explanation:
A body is said to be a resistant body if it is capable of transmitting the required forces with negligible deformation. A link or element need not to be a rigid body, but it must be a resistant body.
Question 4
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
When the connection between the elements forming a pair is such that the constrained motion is not completed by itself, but by some other means, the motion is said to be a completely constrained motion.
True
False
Explanation:
When the motion between a pair is limited to a definite direction irrespective of the direction of force applied, then the motion is said to be a completely constrained motion.
Question 5
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
A railway bridge is an example of a machine.
True
False
Explanation:
When a mechanism is required to transmit power or to do some particular type of work, then it becomes a machine. A railway bridge remains static and there is no motion in it. Hence, it is not a machine.
Question 6
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
The motion of a shaft in a circular hole is an example of
completely constrained motion
incompletely constrained motion
successfully constrained motion
none of the mentioned
Explanation:
When the motion between a pair can take place in more than one direction, then the motion is called an incompletely constrained motion. A circular bar or shaft in a circular hole, is an example of an incompletely constrained motion as it may either rotate or slide in a hole.
Question 7
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
In a reciprocating steam engine, which of the following forms a kinematic link?
cylinder and piston
piston and connecting rod
crankshaft and flywheel
flywheel and engine frame
Explanation:
Each part of a machine which moves relative to some other part, is known as a kinematic link. The piston and cylinder in a steam engine, form a pair and the motion of the piston is limited to a definite direction relative to the cylinder irrespective of the direction of motion of the crank.
Question 8
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
The example of successfully constrained motion is a
motion of an I.C. engine valve
motion of the shaft between a foot-step bearing
piston reciprocating inside an engine cylinder
all of the mentioned
Explanation:
When the connection between the elements forming a pair is such that the constrained motion is not completed by itself, but by some other means, the motion is said to be a successfully constrained motion. so, the above examples have successfully constrained motion.
Question 9
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
The motion between a pair which takes place in ____________ is known as incompletely constrained motion.
one direction only
more than one direction
opposite direction
none of the mentioned
Explanation:
When the motion between a pair can take place in more than one direction, then the motion is called an incompletely constrained motion.
Question 10
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
The motion between a pair when limited to a definite direction, irrespective of the direction of force applied, is known as
completely constrained motion
incompletely constrained motion
successfully constrained motion
none of the mentioned
Explanation:
When the motion between a pair is limited to a definite direction irrespective of the direction of force applied, then the motion is said to be a completely constrained motion.
