Slider Rod - Machine Dynamics (What the MERM doesn't tell you)

In this short video, I review the section on Slider Rods in the chapter Kinematics in the MERM. The example worked is from an old NCEES Sample Exam for Machine Design & Materials.
The MERM has some major gaps and problematic approaches to Rigid-body Kinematics and Kinetics. To address this shortcoming, I have recorded this video help you understand these topics better. After you watch it, let me know how this video has helped you. With your review for the PE Exam? In your college course? Passing a test?
You’ll find lots more videos on my UA-cam channel on fundamental mechanical engineering topics. If you’d like to see more videos like this as they become available, subscribe to our channel.
