SAMPLE OF CALCULATION

Theory Calculation:
x
 = rx.sin  . and x = x2 + 2rx.sin . + rx.cos .2
(r.cos  –x) (r.cos  - x)

Where,

When θ = 30 , r = 7.9cm, L = 20.8cm, q = 1.22cm, ω = 1 rad/s

x = (r + L) – q

x= (7.9 +20.8) – 1.22 = 27.48cm

At  = 30
x
 = (79 ) (27.48) sin 30 . 1 rad/s
(79 . cos 30 – 27.48 )
= -0.259cm/s

At  = 30
x = x2 + 2rx.sin . + rx.cos .2
(r.cos  –x)
= (27.48)2 + 2(79)(27.48).sin 30.(1) + (79)(27.48).cos 30.(1)2
(79.(cos 30) –27.48)
= -8.43m/s2

DISCUSSION:

 There are totally different between the experimental values and the theoretical
values. It is because errors that occurred during the experiment and while doing
the calaulations.

 There are some type of errors that we identified from this experiment :

Because of equipment – sometime the equipment give some effect to the result.
During the experiment we use the old equipments such as old rules. Old equipment
do not have high accuracy.

 The theoretical value straightly we got from the formula, but the experimental
value we must plotted graph to the value from it’s slope.

 My suggestion, how to reduce the errors on the slider crank mechanism:

o Check and maintain regularly to make sure that it is precise and accurate
all the time.

o To run smoothly without any disturbance due to rust or wear.

o More carefully while taking the readings at the slider’s ruler.

 when compared its value of velocity and acceleration, which has a lot percentage
error. Graph 1 shows that the values of velocity (experiment). It gradually
declines from angle 00 to 1800 (minimum point), when 1800 to 3600 the value of
velocity is gradually incline.

 Graph 2 shows that the value of acceleration (experiment) is gradually inclined

from angle 1650 to 2800 (maximum point), when 2800 to 3600 the value of
acceleration is gradually declined.

CONCLUSION:

In conclusion, the objective experiment is achieved, where the objective is only to

determine the velocity and acceleration of the slider crank and to observe the motion of
slider crank due to the angle.
The position and displacement is the most important thing that considered in this
experiment. It has a big relation to the velocity and acceleration that is why the
movement of the velocity and acceleration not moved smoothly. When we do this
experiment, we have tried to achieve the minimum value of the error, so that the best
value can be found. This application also can use in hydraulic cylinder equipment
example like backhoe that can arrange to give it a wide range of operating position.
