Find the velocity and acceleration as requested for the particular mechanism.
Assume the instantaneous angular velocity to be ω21 = 15 rad.s-1 and
acceleration α21 = -5 rad.s-2, if not stated otherwise.
Provide your solution in a graphical and analytical form. The analytical form should be
supported by a spreadsheet with velocity-time and acceleration-time function graph.
