In second gear, the engine does not have to run as fast; usually it runs about 1.6 times faster than the drive shaft. Finally, in third, or high gear, the engine runs at the same speed as the drive shaft. Engine speed = 4,100 r.p.m. Transmission in first gear Drive-shaft speed (to nearest r.p.m.) =
a) 1367
b) 12,300
c) 6560
