sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)

Variables Used

Displacement of Follower - (Measured in Meter) - Displacement of Follower is the linear movement of the follower in a cam-follower mechanism, which converts rotary motion into linear motion.
Stroke of Follower - (Measured in Meter) - Stroke of Follower is the maximum distance the follower moves away from the cam's surface during the return stroke in a cam-follower mechanism.
Angle through Cam Rotates - (Measured in Radian) - Angle through Cam Rotates is the angle through which the cam rotates to move the follower in a specific path, controlling the follower's motion.
Angular Displacement of Cam during Out Stroke - (Measured in Radian) - Angular Displacement of Cam during Out Stroke is the rotation of the cam during the outward movement of the cam follower in a mechanical system.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Stroke of Follower: 20 Meter --> 20 Meter No Conversion Required
Angle through Cam Rotates: 0.349 Radian --> 0.349 Radian No Conversion Required
Angular Displacement of Cam during Out Stroke: 1.396 Radian --> 1.396 Radian No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d_follower = S*(θ_rotation/θ_o*180/pi-sin((2*pi*θ_rotation)/(θ_o))) --> 20*(0.349/1.396*180/pi-sin((2*pi*0.349)/(1.396)))

Evaluating ... ...
