Positive-Return
Double-Roller

Three Types of Contacts of Oscillating Follower - correct answer-Flat-face
Roller
Spherical

Constant Velocity Characteristics - correct answer-Uniform-Velocity Profile
Straight-line Profile
Straight line from zero to end of rise

Constant Velocity Disadvantages - correct answer--Infinity acceleration at the
beginning and end
-Consequent large inertia forces at these points
-Inadequate in application of moderate to high velocity
