question 5
the driving gear on the left has 36 teeth. the driven gear on the right has 36 teeth. will the torque of the driven gear increase, decrease, or stay the same compared to the driving gear?
○ increase
○ decrease
○ stay the same
Brief Explanations
For meshed gears, the torque ratio equals the gear ratio (ratio of driven gear teeth to driving gear teeth). When both gears have the same number of teeth, the gear ratio is 1, so torque remains unchanged.
