Question

Bennett’ construction is used to determine graphically the velocity and acceleration of reciprocating parts of an IC engine.

(a) True

(b) False

I have been asked this question by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

The above asked question is from Bennett’s Construction in division Inertia Forces in Reciprocating Parts of Machine Dynamics

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) True

To explain I would say: The velocity and acceleration of the reciprocating parts of the steam engine or internal combustion engine are determined by either graphical method or analytical method, Bennett’s construction provides graphical solution for the same.
