Since link 2 is rotating at a constant speed, the tangential accelerations of points A and B are zero (<strong>a<\/strong><sub>A<\/sub>\u00a0= <strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>A<\/sub>,<strong> a<\/strong><sub>B<\/sub>\u00a0= <strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>B<\/sub>). a<sub>A<\/sub>\u00a0= a<sub>B<\/sub> = 2912 mm\/s<sup>2<\/sup>, both towards the center of rotation. Using a scale factor\u00a0k<sub>a<\/sub> = 0.2 mm\/(mm\/s<sup>2<\/sup>), we draw these vectors (see figure). Next we write the acceleration of point C as:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C<\/sub>\u00a0+ <strong>a<sup>t<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C<\/sub>\u00a0= <strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>B<\/sub>\u00a0+ <strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C\/B<\/sub>\u00a0+ <strong>a<sup>t<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C\/B<\/sub><\/p>\n<p><strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C<\/sub>\u00a0is a vector along <strong>CC<\/strong><sub>0<\/sub>\u00a0towards C<sub>0<\/sub>\u00a0and is of magnitude |CC<sub>0<\/sub>|\u03c9<sub>13<\/sub><sup>2<\/sup> = v<sub>C<\/sub><sup>2<\/sup>\/|CC<sub>0<\/sub>|= 1045 mm\/s<sup>2<\/sup>.\u00a0<strong>a<sup>n<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C\/B<\/sub>\u00a0= <strong>0<\/strong> since \u03c9<sub>13<\/sub>\u00a0= 0 for this position. <strong>a<sup>t<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C<\/sub>\u00a0and <strong>a<sup>t<\/sup><\/strong><sub>C\/B<\/sub>\u00a0are perpendicular to <strong>CC<\/strong><sub>0<\/sub> and <strong>CB<\/strong>, respectively (unknown magnitudes).

The two equations can now be solved simultaneously to determine the velocity of point E. For the acceleration of point F, Mehmke&#8217;s theorem is applied (triangle aef on the acceleration polygon is similar to the triangle AEF of link 6). The result is shown in the figure below.
