Explanation:

Coriolis component of acceleration – When a point on one link is sliding along another rotating link such as in quick return motion mechanism, then the Coriolis component of acceleration comes into account. It is the tangential component of the acceleration of the slider with respect to the coincident point on the link.

Mathematically,

Coriolis component of acceleration, ac = 2vω

The direction of the Coriolis component of acceleration is given by rotating the velocity of the slider by 90° in the direction of the angular velocity of the rotating link.
