That depends on the riding conditions. Having more gears to choose from means that a rider can find the best gear for more types of riding conditions. But if the riding conditions (degrees of slope to climb/descend etc) don't change much, then a rider won't use that many different gears. And the gears a rider isn't using isn't any benefit. The fastest bikes on level ground are usually track bikes, and they only have one gear.

How does tire size affect the speedometer in a car?

The speedometer in a car runs based off the speed of the transmission. The gears in the transmission spin at a known rate for the speed the vehicle is traveling at. The faster the gears spin the more the speedometer goes up. If a person replaces stock tires with larger tires, then the tires will spin slower, which will cause the speedometer to read at a value that is less than the actual speed.

What are the 3 uses of Gears?

Gears can change direction of rotational force from one axis to another. For example, a wind driven mill. The wind turns a shaft that is horizontal. That shaft turns a gear that is vertical, and the vertical gear meshes with a horizontal gear that turns a vertical shaft. Gears can change rotational speed. With a small gear meshed and turning a larger gear, the larger gear will have a slower RPM. Gears can change torque to increase or decrease available power. A small low force gear driving a larger gear will provide more rotational force.
