Same way as any gear set does. If you have a large wheel(more teeth) driving a smaller wheel(fewer teeth), then the smaller wheel will spin faster, but with less force.

If you have a small wheel driving a big wheel, then the big wheel will spin slower but stronger.

What are the various forces acting on bevel gears and worm gears?

Bevel gears can change the speed and motion and Worm gears can reduce speed and direction of motion.


Gears may be combined in a system to?

change direction, change speed, and change force


What are gears?

Gears are a toothed machine part, such as a wheel or cylinder, that meshes with another toothed part to transmit motion or to change speed or direction.


What are two important things gears do?

Change speed of rotation. change direction of rotation.


Where are gears used?

Wherever you want to change how fast something turns and how strong something turns. Gears allow you to change a slow and strong movement into a faster but weaker movement, or the other way around. Gears can also be used to change the direction of rotation.


Can a faulty speed sensor cause not to change gears?

In some vehicles, yes.


How does the speed shifter on a bike work to change gears efficiently and smoothly?

The speed shifter on a bike works by moving the chain onto different sized gears, which changes the resistance and speed of pedaling. This allows the rider to efficiently and smoothly shift gears to match the terrain or desired speed.


What makes a transmission change gear when speedometer reach 25 miles?

mot transmissions change gears on a variable of things,not always speed. It depends on the engines vacuum being pulled at a certain rpm or electronics that monitor the engine speed that tell the transmissions to change gears.


What are the different types of bike pedal gears available for mountain biking?

The different types of bike pedal gears available for mountain biking include single-speed, multiple-speed, and electronic shifting systems. Single-speed gears have only one gear ratio, while multiple-speed gears offer a range of gear ratios for varying terrain. Electronic shifting systems use electronic components to change gears with precision and efficiency.


These are toothed wheels which can change speed and direction?

Those are gears, mechanical components that transmit motion between axles. Gears can vary in size and shape to control speed, torque, and direction in machines and systems.


How do you change bike gears effectively and efficiently?

To change bike gears effectively and efficiently, use the right gear for the terrain and your pedaling speed. Shift gears before you need to, anticipate changes in terrain, and adjust your cadence accordingly. Practice shifting smoothly and gradually to avoid straining the chain or gears.


Why does a car have a transmission but a bicycle doesn't?

Cars have transmissions so they can shift gears, a bike's transmission is the gears that change your speed. The lower the gear you're in, the faster you peddle.
