Anna University KOM Question Bank

I am not good in the Kinematics of machinery (KOM) so I am looking for the question paper so I can get the at least passing marks in it. Please share the question bank of the Anna University KOM subject? Or tell me about the websites from there I can get them?

Can you provide me the B.E. Mechanical Engineering - ME6401 Kinematics of Machinery - Syllabus of Anna University on which the question paper is based?
