The document discusses the slider-crank mechanism, which is commonly used in machines. It notes that the crank is turning at a uniform angular velocity counterclockwise. An example is provided to calculate the instantaneous linear acceleration of points A and B in a slider-crank mechanism diagram given the dimensions and velocity of the crank. Steps for determining the acceleration polygon are referenced to analyze acceleration in the mechanism.
