Does gear train provide a force advantage or speed advantage and explain?
Gear Train Advantage Arnel Dela Cruz Does gear train provide a force advantage or speed advantage and explain? Make it shortly A gear train can provide a force advantage or a speed advantage, depending on the arrangement of the gears. When the input gear has a smaller radius than the output gear, the gear train provides a force advantage, as the output gear will rotate more slowly but with greater torque. This is known as a gear reduction. Conversely, when the input gear has a larger radius than the output gear, the gear train provides a speed advantage, as the output gear will rotate more quickly but with less torque. This is known as a gear increase or gear multiplier.
What happens to torque when something rotates faster?
When ever you attach a gear with less teeth to a gear with more teeth, thus increasing your gear ratio and the speed in which the gear with less teeth rotate, the amount of torque in your gear combination decreases. This can also be expressed as a ratio, which happens to be the inverse of a gear ratio, meaning if your gear ratio was lets say... 1:5, the ratio for the amount of torque is 5:1, meaning you receive five times less the amount of torque, to increase your speed five times as fast.
How does the size of the gears in a gear train affect speed and force?
If the driving wheel has more number of teeth, and the driven wheel has less number of teeth then there will be a gain in SPEED .If the number of tooth in the driver is less in the driving wheel and there is more number of tooth in the driven wheel , there will be a gain in TORQUE.
Why might compound gear train be better than two gears alone?
Because the speed is decreased less from an equal gear ratio.
In a semi truck will you get higher torque and less road speed with a higher gear ratio?
"Higher" can be a pretty ambiguous term here. Generally speaking, for higher torque and lower road speeds, you'd have taller rear end gear ratios.
What is overdrive on a Ford Mustang?
its acruising gear on all fords whether manual or auto so you save gas and your tranny goes into a higher gear, less torque on tranny
How much hp to move 500 lb?
You can do it with less than one horsepower. It's all a matter of torque and gear ratios.
In a bevel gear is the torque increased decreased or constant?
There are 3 possibilities:-1) If the pinion has less teeth than the wheel - torque is increased.2) If the pinion has more teeth than the wheel - torque is decreased.3) If the pinion has the same number of teeth as the wheel - torque is constant.
How do different Differential gear ratios affect top speed?
Lower differential gear ratios, such as a 4.11 for example will help you get up to speed sooner in all gears, but your top speed will be limited vs a differential gear ratio of 3.08. In other words more torque less speed, less torque more speed. 4.11 for example means that your drive shaft from the transmission to the rear end spinns 4 times for every 1 time your tire does one complete rotation. If the rear end gear ratio was 3.08 instead of 4.11, then your drive shaft would rotate 3 times for every 1 time the tire did one complete rotation. So the engine would rev less in the final gear at the same speed, but there would be less torque. The weight of your vehicle, the amount of torque and horsepower your engine puts out and the type of transmission and the amount and type of gears it has also determines a lot.
How the speed of a vehicle is related to engine speed and how tha vehicle speed is affected by the engine torque and gear ratio?
A smaller number as a gear ratio means more speed. Higher ratios have higher torque and less speed. The size of the engine just determines hp and tq for that engine unless it is upgraded. The gear ratio and engine determine the vehicles top speed and acceleration. More torque means more power therefore more acceleration.
What is the top speed of a Honda 8hp go kart engine?
It really depends on many factors. some factors include tire diameter, The gross weight of the car, the engine rpm, the way you gear it and whether you used a torque converter or clutch. There are too many factors that you have not included in your question for me to give you an answer. you can gear your engine for more speed and less torque, or you can gear it for more torque and less speed. Torque allows you to accelerate faster but you wont be able to reach a the same max speed as if you geared it for speed. if you solely want speed and you are on a flat paved surface, a clutch would allow more speed, but if you're planning on riding really any other area then you would want a torque converter or else you will blow your clutch.
Using overdrive on automatic gearbox does it burn more fuel than using overdrive off?
using overdrive will use less fuel as it is another gear to lower your rev's Overdrive is a crusing gear to get better fuel efficiency at the price or torque
