5 (a) Explain different types of instantaneous center of rotation.(4 marks) 5 (b) In the mechanism shown in Fig. 1, the crank OA rotates at 20 r.p.m. in anticlockwise direction and gives motion to the sliding blocks B and D. For the given configuration of mechanism, determine by relative velocity method and relative acceleration Method:
(i)Velocity of sliders B and D
(ii) Angular velocity of link CD
(iii) Acceleration of sliders B.
