A simple enough question, but complicated by so many possible variations. For instance, place two cog wheels together so that their teeth mesh. Turn cog A clockwise and cog B will turn anticlockwise (counterclockwise in America). But if you replaced the toothed cogs with a pair of single pulley wheels with some distance apart. Pulling on the rope would turn the top pulley A clockwise and the pulley wheel B clockwise also. But, let us suppose that the rope has been deliberately twisted (not straightly laid) then the pulley B would be turning anticlockwise when the pullet A was turning clockwise.
The rate of travel (RPM) would depends on the diametres of the pulley wheels - variations once more!

In the picture below if a twisted pulley A turns clockwise at 15 rpm how fast and in what direction will pulley B turn?

Pulley B will turn counterclockwise at 15 rpm since it is connected to pulley A with a twisted belt. The direction of rotation is opposite between the two pulleys due to the arrangement of the twisted belt.


In the picture below if pulley A turns clockwise at 15 rpm how fast and in what direction will pulley B turn?

Pulley B will turn counterclockwise at 15 rpm since it is connected to pulley A by the belt. Both pulleys will turn at the same speed since they are connected by the belt.


In the picture below if pulley A is moved clockwise what direction and how fast will pulley C turn?

If pulley A is moved clockwise, pulley C will also turn clockwise at half the speed of pulley A due to the belt connection. This is because pulley C has a larger diameter than pulley A, causing it to rotate slower while maintaining the same linear speed.

What is fast and loose pulley?

A fast and loose pulley system consists of a pair of pulleys, one fixed (fast) and one movable (loose). The loose pulley can be engaged or disengaged to change the speed or direction of the driven mechanism without affecting the driving mechanism. This system allows for quick adjustments and versatile operation in machinery.

How do you rotate really fast in the Automatic trail in the Dark Desert of Sonic Riders?

When the symbol(rotate clockwise)appears, rotate counter-clockwise as fast as you can with the main button of the system you are playing on.

What are two types of pulleys?

There are two basic types of pulleys. When the grooved wheel is attached to a surface it forms a fixed pulley. The main benefit of a fixed pulley is that it changes the direction of the required force. Another type of pulley, called a movable pulley, consists of a rope attached to some surface. The wheel directly supports the load, and the effort comes from the same direction as the rope attachment.


Where are gears used?

Wherever you want to change how fast something turns and how strong something turns. Gears allow you to change a slow and strong movement into a faster but weaker movement, or the other way around. Gears can also be used to change the direction of rotation.
