    For Crank and Rocker mechanism
    If crank and Rocker are perpendicular to fixed link
    Vb=Vc
    Hence option (a) will be correct.

    all options are wrong in this. Since crank and rocker are parallel to each other the coupler angular velocity becomes zero. So, Vb=Vc.

    Vc/Vb = CD/AB.

    = 450/310 AB distance is 300 it will perfectly come.

    = 1.46 ~ 1.5.
    = 1.5 = 3/2.

    Vc = Vb*3/2.

    = 3/2 Vb.
