Question

In a normal use bicycle, the angular speed of the minor gear has been found to be 25 rad / s. Find the angular speed of the larger gear, knowing that the small gear has a diameter of 4 R and the large gear 10 R.

Answer 1

10 rad/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The gears have the same linear speed.

ω₁ r₁ = ω₂ r₂

(25 rad/s) (2R) = ω (5R)

ω = 10 rad/s
