Theory of Machine
In a cam drive with uniform velocity follower, the sharp corners of the displacement diagram are rounded off at the beginning and at the end of each stroke. This is done

Because the uniform velocity motion is a partial parabolic motion
Because of loose contact of follower with cam surface
Because of difficulty in manufacturing cam profile
In order to have acceleration in beginning and retardation at the end of stroke within the finite limits

Theory of Machine
Which is the false statement about the properties of instantaneous center?

The two rigid links have no linear velocities relative to each other at the instantaneous center
At the instantaneous center of rotation, one rigid link rotates instantaneously relative to another for the configuration of mechanism considered
The double center can be denoted either by O2 or O12, but proper selection should be made
The two rigid links which have no linear velocity relative to each other at this center have the same linear velocity to the third rigid link
