If the gear ratio for fuel pump is thrice that of the oxidizer pump, the shaft speed of fuel pump is ____________ the oxidizer pump.

Correct Answer: one-third
One-third because it follows from the relation, aoNo = afNf. Given, af=3 x ao. Using this, Nf = 1/3 x No.

A gear train consist of spur gear as shown. Gear A receives 4kW of power at 750rpm through its shaft and rotates in CW direction. A gear train consist of spur gear as shown. Gear A receives 4kW of power at 750rpm through its shaft and rotates in CW direction. Calculate the torque on the gear C if number of teeth on gear A, B and C are 40, 70 and 30.

A torsional system with discs of moment of inertia $${I_1}$$ and $${I_2}$$ as shown in the below figure, is gear driven such that the ratio of speed of shaft B to shaft A is 'G'. Neglecting the inertia of gears, the equivalent inertia of disc on shaft B at the speed of shaft A is equal to

A planetary gear train is shown in the figure. Number of teeth on the sun gear A, planet gear B and fixed ring gear D are given by 30, 70 and 140 respectively. Module is taken as 5mm. A pair of spur gears consist of 25 teeth pinion meshing with a 115 teeth gear. The module is 5mm. Calculate the gear ratio.

A double universal joint is used to connect two shafts in the same plane. The intermediate shaft is inclined at an angle of 20° to the driving shaft as well as the driven shaft. Find the maximum speed of the intermediate shaft if the driving shaft has a constant speed of 500 r.p.m.

Following is the data for transmission system of a Gear box reduction ratios.
1st gear - 4.3 : 1
2nd gear - 3.00 : 1
3rd gear - 2.71 : 1
4th gear - 1 : 1
Final drive reduction is 5.0 : 1
The overall reduction when the vehicle is driven in 2nd gear is

A gear train consist of spur gear as shown. Gear A receives 4kW of power at 750rpm through its shaft and rotates in CW direction. Calculate the tangential gear tooth force. Module of the gear is 5mm.

A centrifugal pump which circulates a hot liquid metal at 500 degree Celsius is driven by a 3600 rpm electric motor. The motor is coupled to the pump impeller by a horizontal steel shaft of dia 25 mm. Let us assume the motor temperature as 60 degree Celsius with the ambient air at 25 degree Celsius, what length of shaft should be specified between the motor and the pump? It may be presumed that the thermal conductivity of the shaft material is 35W/m K and that the convective film coefficient between the steel shaft and the ambient air is 15.7W/square m K
