In the below figure, PC is the connecting rod and OC is the crank making an angle θ with the line of stroke PO and rotates with uniform angular velocity at ω rad/s. The Klien's acceleration diagram for determining the acceleration of the piston P is shown by quadrilateral C Q NO, the acceleration of the piston is zero when the crank OC and connecting rod PC are at right angles to each other.

The answer should be incorrect. Because the acceleration is zero when the crank is at 90° or 270° with respect to the inner dead centre. Not wrt the connecting rod. So, Answer should be incorrect.
