Finding velocity components of point in the middle of a tricycle
Well, i guess the following: Speed of movement in P: vP = q * ω Components: vPX = VP * sin(β) vPY = VP * cos(β) Right? ;)- Krus

Finding velocity components of point in the middle of a tricycle
Yes... The angular velocity and all other values (see image) are the following: ω = (VF * sin(α)) / d r = d / tan(α) length of radius: q = √(r2 + CP2) direction of movement of P: β = atan(CP / r)- Krus

Finding velocity components of point in the middle of a tricycle
Yes, you're right, that's what I mean.:) Do you have any Idea how to get these velocities? For sure I can get the center of rotation out of the geometry, but how to use these data to get the velocities? Thanks- Krus

Finding velocity components of point in the middle of a tricycle
Hi :) OK, I'm sorry.. The description was maybe a bit wrong. I try to explain what I need in some examples: If vF = 50 mm/s and α = 0, then the y-component of the velocity would also be 50 mm/s, x-component and ω is then 0. If vF = 50 mm/s and α = 90, then the vehicle is turning around its...- Krus

Finding velocity components of point in the middle of a tricycle
Homework Statement I have a tricycle with a following data (see attachment): Distance (d) between center of front wheel (F) and center between rear wheels (C) = 325 mm Velocity of front wheel (VF) = 50 mm/s Angle of front wheel (α) = changing between -90;90 Distance between point C and P =...- Krus
