This question is based upon the figure shown below
There are two slides P and Q which slide in the guide-ways A, B, C and D. P slides from A to C and vice versa. Q slides from D to B and vice versa. The clockwise rotating device R is attached to the two slides P and Q in such a way that the rotary motion R is converted to the reciprocating motion of the two slides. When the slide Q reaches the centre and slide P reaches the top i.e. point A as shown in the figure the device R faces towards C. The slides travel half the distance in their respective guide-ways to make the rotating device face any of the four points A, B, C and D. If the device R faces towards Point D, then what shall be the position of the slide P. |
Correct Answer:
At the centre
