The rod AB, of length 1 m, shown in the figure is connected to two sliders at each end through pins. The sliders can slide along QP and QR. If the velocity V_A of the slider at A is 2 m/s, the velocity of the midpoint of the rod at this instant is ___________ m/s.

The number of degrees of freedom of the linkage shown in the figure is

Figure shows a wheel rotating about O₂. Two points A and B located along the radius of wheel have speeds of 80 m/s and 140 m/s respectively. The distance between the points A and B is 300 mm. The diameter of the wheel (in mm) is __________

In a certain slider-crank mechanism, lengths of crank and connecting rod are equal. If the crank rotates with a uniform angular speed of 14 rad/s and the crank length is 300 mm, the maximum acceleration of the slider (in m/s²) is _________
