A four bar mechanism is shown in the figure. The link numbers are mentioned near the links. Input link $2$ is rotating anticlockwise with a constant angular speed $\omega_2$. Length of different links are: $O_2 O_4=O_2A=L,$$AB=O_4B=\sqrt{2}L$ The magnitude of the angular ... $90^{\circ}$ with $O_2O_4$ as shown. The ratio $\frac{\omega_4}{\omega_2}$ is _________ (round off to two decimal places).
Figure shows a wheel rotating about $O_2$. 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 ________
A gear train is made up of five spur gears as shown in the figure. Gear $2$ is driver and gear $6$ is driven member. $N_2$, $N_3$, $N_4$, $N_5$ and $N_6$ represent number of teeth on gears $2$, $3$, $4$, $5$, and $6$ respectively.
