Question
An effort is applied on the bigger wheel of a gear having 32 teeth. It is used to turn a wheel of 8 teeth. Where it is used.
Solution
The number of teeth in the driving wheel is nB = 32 and that in the driven wheel is nA = 8. Hence, this system is used to obtain the gain in speed
The Gain in speed = `n_B/n_A`= `32/8 = 4`
