What gear ratio would you use to get enough torque and speed to achieve that fastest time?
The gear ratio for top gear is chosen to produce maximum speed, which occurs at a speed where the engine's maximum power is take up with maintaining a constant speed (on the level). For cars the overall ratio for top gear is 3.5 to 4.5 : 1. For example, if the engine's maximum power is 100 bhp at 6300 rpm, and that power can drive the car at the maximum speed of 110 mph, the overall ratio is chosen to give 6300 rpm at 110 mph.
Why is gear ratio also called velocity ratio?
The gear ratio of a train, also known as its speed ratio, is the ratio of the angular velocity of the input gear to the velocity of the output gear. The gear ratio is very important when it comes to physics.
How fast can you go in second gear?
The maximum speed a car can go in 2nd gear is primarily dependent on the gears in the car's transmission. It can also be affected by the overall diameter of tires on the car as well as the maximum engine speed of the car's engine. To determine the maximum speed for a specific car you would need to have knowledge of that specific car's maximum engine speed, the transmission's 2nd gear ratio and final drive ratio, and the overall diameter of the tires on the car. Adding a larger wheel/tire combo will increase the top speed in each gear. Increasing the car's maximum engine speed, or redline as it's commonly referred to, via an aftermarket chip or computer reflash, will allow a higher maximum speed in each gear as well. Without modification, most factory cars will have a maximum 2nd gear top speed between 60mph and 70mph. This figure typically goes up for larger engined vehicles and down for smaller engined vehicles. The more gears a car has will generally mean a lower maximum speed in the first few gears. A sportbike can achieve a speed over 100mph in it's 2nd gear
How many miles per hour with second gear?
There are a lot of factors that go into determining this. What is the effective gear ratio for second gear? What is the maximum RPM of the engine? What is the rolling diameter of the tires? If you can provide the answers to those three questions, I can tell you the maximum speed.
Does a bad speed sensor effect the gear ratio?
No, the gear ratio is determined by the number of teeth in the ring gear and pinion gear. To be changed, that would require a physical alteration, which a speed sensor cannot do.
What is the Speed Ratio of a bicycle?
The speed ratio of a bicycle is the (gear ratio* radius of the wheel)/ Length of the pedal arm.
What is gear ratio in 2009 mustang 5 speed automatic ratio?
3:31
What is the speed ratio of a gear with 36 teeth meshed to a gear with 20 teeth?
What is the speed ratio of an input with 36 teeth meshed to a gear with 20 teet?
What does the speed of the car depend on?
Horse power and gear ratio.
How do you use gear ratio to increase horsepower?
It doesn't work that way. The gear ratio determines what speed the vehicle is running at when in the (torque) powerband.
What is the maximum speed of the Chrysler new yorker sedan automatic 8cyl 380hp 1970?
It depends on the rear end gear ratio, but the top speed should be between 115 with 3.55 gears or 125mph with 3.23gears.
What is the gear ratio for first gear in a suzuki samurai transmission?
'86 Samurai 5 speed transmission 1st gear final reduction ratio from the factory manual is: 3.652
