    if so , Then the case of shaft inside circular hole with collars , how it is complete constrained why not successfully ??

    - The relative motion between links is not completely constrained on its own and is made so by using other means. This motion is called as successfully constrained motion.

    - The round bar has incompletely constrained motion in round hole. This can be successfully constrained to pure rotational motion by providing a key way in the bar.

    - Providing a key on shaft prevents sliding motion of round bar and it only rotates along the block. Hence, it becomes a successfully constrained motion.
