Q.  
The choice of displacement diagram during rise or return of a follower of a cam-follower mechanism is based on dynamic considerations. For high speed cam follower mechanism, the most suitable displacement for the follower is


Answer & Explanation

There are no abrupt changes in velocity and acceleration, hence, cycloidal program is the most suitable one for high speed follower motion.

Thus correct option is: A.
