Tooth size, style and pitch must be the same. And if the gears are helical they must have the same twist, in opposite directions.

What Correct use of the gears depends on accurately matching the gears to what?

Matching the gears to mesh properly.


What are three conditions that must be satisfied for gears to mesh properly?

For gears to mesh properly, they must have compatible pitch diameters, ensuring that their teeth align correctly during operation. The tooth profiles should also be designed to match, typically following standard involute shapes to maintain smooth engagement and disengagement. Additionally, the gears must be properly aligned and positioned to prevent excessive wear and ensure efficient power transfer.

What is difference between synchromesh and sliding mesh gearbox?

Sliding mesh - This is where the gears are not in constant mesh with each other and the gears on the main shaft slide over to mesh with the gears on the lay shaft/counter shaft. Synchromesh - the problem with constant mesh is that the gears crash into each other when changing gear because there travelling at different rpms (one at engine speed and the other a lot slower) They dont line up properly when spinning and when they go to mesh they end up grinding. So the awnser is Synchromesh which uses Baulk rings to lock onto the gear first before the sliding sleeve comes over to lock on. Difficult to explain how it works but basically its a smooth gear change.


Do the gears of a bicycle mesh together?

Don't really know what you're tinking of with "mesh together"... On a bike with external gears the gears will not mesh. There's the chain acting as a go-between to transfer the energy. On an internally geared bike you will have cogwheels that are interlocking and driving each other.

What are the main causesof the failure of fly wheel?

When the "bendix gear" is engaged by the starter, sometimes if all is not aligned properly, the gears will not mesh causing gear tooth breakage. also excessive heat can cause warpage.
