Question

This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Gear A weighs 5lb and has a radius of gyration of 1.3in; Gear B weighs 10lb and has a radius of gyration of 3in.; gear C weighs 13lb and has a radius of gyration of 4.3in. A couple M of constant magnitude of 40lb.in is applied to gear

A. Determine the tangential force which gear B exerts on gear
B. The tangential force which gear B exerts on gear C is lb↑.

Answer 1

When more force is applied to gear A, the angular velocity of gear B increases in magnitude.

Step-by-step explanation:

When more force is applied to gear A, a torque is created, which affects the angular velocity of gear B. The angular velocity of gear B increases in magnitude as a result of the increased torque. This means that the rate at which gear B rotates speeds up when more force is applied to gear A.
