From figure, what is the absolute velocity of P, i.e velocity of P with respect to the stationary point O?

(a) ω × OC

(b) ω × OM

(c) ω × CM

(d) ω × QN

The question was asked in an online interview.

I need to ask this question from Bennett’s Construction in portion Inertia Forces in Reciprocating Parts of Machine Dynamics

Right answer is (b) ω × OM

For explanation I would say: In the figure, the triangle OCM is known as the velocity diagram, referring to that will provide us the absolute velocity of point P. Velocity if C wrt to O is ω × OC and ω × OM is velocity of P wrt to O.
