Which gear turns faster if the driving gear is smaller than the driven gear?
The answer does not depend on which gear is driving. Linear-wise, the two gears are meshed so the teeth are moving at the same speed. Rotation-wise, the smaller gear has smaller radius so it is "turning faster" in terms of RPMs.
Which gear turns faster if the driving gear is larger than the driven gear?
according to velocity ratio i.e N1/N2 = D2/D1 which implies that diameter of gear is inversly proportaional to speed . hence, DRIVEN GEAR will move faster as it is smaller in size than the DRIVING GEAR
What the difference between a driving gear and a driven gear?
The "driving" or drive gear is the source of power or rotation. The driven gear is turned or moved by the drive gear. Example: The pulley on a motor is the drive pulley and a pulley on a pump is the driven pulley. Example: The pinion gear in a differential is the drive gear and the ring is the driven gear.
Is gear a force multiplier or a speed multiplier?
Both. A small driving gear and a large driven gear is a force multiplier. Whilst a large driving gear and a small driven gear is a speed multiplier
Why gear with less number of teeth has poor strength?
It depends if the gear is driving or being driven. A large gear pulling a smaller one gives speed, while a small gear pulling a larger one gives power. The reason has to do with the number of times they turn in relation to each other. That is also known as the gear ratio. For instance, if a gear has to turn a gear that's ten times it's size, the drive gear has to turn ten times before the output gear turns once, thus converting speed to power. However, a gear driving a gear that is 1/10 its size means that the driven gear would get to turn ten times for each time the driving gear turns, thus converting power to speed. In practical usage, keep in mind that older manual transmissions were made to where all the forward arrangements but the 4th gear were made to where the driving gear (the one connected most directly to the crank shaft of the engine) is smaller than the driven gear. So in the first three gears, the engine turned faster than the drive shaft. In those transmissions, 4th gear usually had both gears in that set the same size so the drive shaft is turning at the speed of the engine, Then once automakers began to add overdrive, that meant that 5 and higher gears were paired to where the driving gear (engine side) is larger than the driven gear (drive shaft side) to allow the drive shaft to turn faster than the engine.

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.
When you use a gear with a small diameter to drive a gear with a large diameter what is increased speed or torque?
Torque is increased on the larger, driven gear. The increase can be calculated as the ratio of the radii of the two gears. For example, if the small gear has a radius of 2 cm and the larger gear has a radius of 10 cm, the torque ratio is 10/2 (ten to two), or 5/1 (five to one). So the driven gear is producing 5 times the torque of the driving gear. The speed ratio is the reverse; the driven gear is rotating at 1/5 the speed of the driving gear.
Which gear turns faster if both driving and driven gear are the same?
If they are the same, they will turn at the same speed.
What is a gear drive?
In a vehicle, a driving gear is the gear which is driven by the engine. The driving gear helps control the speed the vehicle is in.
What is driven gear?
A driven gear is a output gear
What is a driven gear?
A driven gear is a output gear
