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.
The number of times one gear turns another is called its?
ratio
When one gear turns another do the gears turn in the same direction?
No, while one gear is turning the other the other gear should move the opposite direction. I learned this in robotics class.
What is the number of times one gear turns another?
It depends on the ratio of the number of teeth on the two gears.
When a big gear turns a small one the output provides more?
A big gear turning a small gear means the small gear will spin faster, but weaker.
How force is changed when machines increases force?
It depends on the working principle of the machine. Like for example in a gear mechanism if you replace the bigger gear with an even bigger one then a smaller amount of force would rotate the smaller gear in the same angular velocity as the initial gear did but with a greater force. But now if you increases the force in the bigger gear the smaller gear would tend to rotate more fast.

What is a 355 gear ratio differential?
3.55 turns of the input shaft to one turn of the ring gear and axle shafts.
If driving wheel and driven wheel of gear system are of same size which will more faster?
Gears are used to transfer force from one wheel to another. When gears are of the same size then driving gear will move faster as force is being applied on
What is the formula of a driven gear and a driving gear?
Turn the drive gear 1 complete turn, and count how many times the driven gear turns. For example, to figure out the rear end gear ratio if the drive shaft turns once and the rear turns 3 and a half times you have a 1:3.5 gear ratio. This means the rear wheels turn 3.5 times for each one turn of the drive shaft.
Why do gears have a gear ratio?
When one gear is used to drive another, the number of teeth on each gear will factor into the ratio. Even if the number is the same it will have a 1 to 1 ratio. In a rear axle, for example, a common ratio is 41 teeth on the ring gear (driven gear) and 11 teeth on the pinion gear (drive gear). 41/11 is 3.727272 or commonly called a 3.73 to 1 ratio. It take 3.73 turns of the drive gear to get one turn of the driven gear. If you are interested, the different ratios provide different combinations of speed and power. Thus a large gear pulling a smaller one gives speed while a smaller gear pulling a larger one gives power.
What is function gear reduction?
Reduction in gear ratio form one gear to another such as a rear axle ring & pinion gear allows each component to complete revolutions per minute at different speeds in relation to one another. this can allow more power from an engine to be transmitted for example to the drive shaft as the drive shaft turns faster - thus turning the pinion gear faster than the ring gear that it meshes to in the rear axle assembly so the engine speed then turns the ring gear at at different rate - inturn the wheels of a truck turn at a slower rate then the drive shaft that is attached to the pinion gear - so the truck can rev the engine and the gear ratio allows the gears turning engine in relation to truck axle at different speeds to use more power to be sent to the axle & truck wheels.
