Why are small wheels bad for a mousetrap car?
Larger wheels have a larger diameter. Therefor, they will cover a greater distance per rotation of the driven axle, compared to a smaller wheel.
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 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
Can driving gear be larger than driven gear in a gear drive?
Yes, it just makes the ratio different. Such as 1 to 3.00 instead of 3:00 to 1
Is the first gear of an automobile smaller than the others or bigger?
The first gear is larger than the others. As the gear has larger radius the speed of rotation is low. As the gears keep on increasing their size decreases resulting in increase in speed of the vehicle
Is driving a limousine like driving a car?
Yes, because a limo is a car and is driven in the same manner ie It has gear, pedals, steering wheel etc. However, a limo can vary in size and can be much larger than a car and so parking, cornering etc can be alot more challenging.
Can you put a rear tire on the front of a motorcycle if you reverse the rotation?
NO. The rear tire is almost always larger than the front. I don't know what rotation has to do with this but it is not recommended to reverse rotation on any tire.
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.
When buying a GPS, how important is screen size Does a larger screen actually make things easier to see or does it really matter?
If the GPS unit is touch screen driven then the larger the better, otherwise I generally don't read the directions I listen to them and therefore don't need a large screen. In fact the larger screens actually add more glare at night driving. IF you find yourself constantly glancing at the screen while driving then yes, a larger screen will allow for larger script and that means less time that your eyes are off the road searching for road names, mileage, etc.
Why do you need rotation?
It is necessary for a planet to rotate around a sun, or other large mass, because it is what allows the planet to stay at a fairly consistent distance away from the larger mass. If there was no rotation, the planet would go hurtling toward the mass. The rotation adds an outward acceleration to counteract the force of gravity from the larger mass.
What does it mean to substantially increase?
To increase is to get larger, to have more of something. A substantial increase is an increase that is large enough to matter in some way.
Equation for a circle centered at the origin should one increase to make a circle larger?
Yes, increase the constant term to make the circle larger.
