Show hintHide hint
Think about types of machines you use daily.
Question 2.
What type of constraint does a fully constrained mechanism have?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how well-defined the motion is.
3Question 3.
What type of mechanism would primarily be used for force transmission?
- Gears

Show hintHide hint
Consider practical uses in machinery.
Question 6.
