An in-line cam with a roller follower is to raise the follower by 1.5 in with harmonic motion while the cam turns 150°, hold it at rest for 60°, and return it to its original position during the remaining 150° with harmonic motion. The roller is 1.25 in in diameter, and in its lowest position the axis of the roller is 2 in above the axis of the camshaft. Design the profile of this cam. Also, plot the displacement diagram during one revolution of the cam.
