It depends if the gear is driving or being driven. A large gear pulling a smaller one gives speed, while a small gear pulling a larger one gives power.
The reason has to do with the number of times they turn in relation to each other. That is also known as the gear ratio. For instance, if a gear has to turn a gear that's ten times it's size, the drive gear has to turn ten times before the output gear turns once, thus converting speed to power. However, a gear driving a gear that is 1/10 its size means that the driven gear would get to turn ten times for each time the driving gear turns, thus converting power to speed.
In practical usage, keep in mind that older manual transmissions were made to where all the forward arrangements but the 4th gear were made to where the driving gear (the one connected most directly to the crank shaft of the engine) is smaller than the driven gear. So in the first three gears, the engine turned faster than the drive shaft. In those transmissions, 4th gear usually had both gears in that set the same size so the drive shaft is turning at the speed of the engine, Then once automakers began to add overdrive, that meant that 5 and higher gears were paired to where the driving gear (engine side) is larger than the driven gear (drive shaft side) to allow the drive shaft to turn faster than the engine.

What is the disadvanges of spur gears?
they have, comparitively, less teeth in engagement than helicals. They can be noisy- depends on the PA and the number of teeth on gear.
What is the lowest number of teeth that a traxxas stampede spur gear can have?
I have no idea what a Traxxis Stampede is, but spur gears of 6 teeth are possible, but few have less that 10 teeth.
How does the size of the gears in a gear train affect speed and force?
If the driving wheel has more number of teeth, and the driven wheel has less number of teeth then there will be a gain in SPEED .If the number of tooth in the driver is less in the driving wheel and there is more number of tooth in the driven wheel , there will be a gain in TORQUE.
What does a helical gear look like?
Helical gears are similar to spur gear except it's teeth are slant. They have good load distribution, less noise and less wear compare to spur gear.
In a bevel gear is the torque increased decreased or constant?
There are 3 possibilities:-1) If the pinion has less teeth than the wheel - torque is increased.2) If the pinion has more teeth than the wheel - torque is decreased.3) If the pinion has the same number of teeth as the wheel - torque is constant.
What can be avoided by eating enough calcium?
Calcium increases the strength and recovery time of bones and teeth! With that in mind having a good amount of calcium in your diet means that your teeth and bones are less likely to break because of the added strength.
What happens to torque when something rotates faster?
When an object rotates faster, the angular velocity increases while the torque remains constant. This is described by the equation torque = moment of inertia * angular acceleration. Thus, if angular acceleration increases, torque may change to match the new acceleration.
Gear ratios for a1960 Chevy 1 ton truck?
A good way to get the final drive ratio with the tires you have on the vehicle is to raise the rear tires off the ground. Put the vehicle in neutral, mark the drive shaft, then while rotating the tire one full revolution count how many revolutions the drive shaft makes. that would be the final drive ratio. drive shaft revolutions over 1 so three and one third revs of the drive shaft to one rev of the tire would be 3.33/1 or 3.33 gear ratio. note if tires are larger than stock or smaller than stock it will change the actual drive ratio. Or you could remove the differential cover and count the teeth on the ring gear and the teeth on the pinion gear then divide the ring gear number's (larger number) by the pinion teeth number (less teeth) to find out the exact gear ratio. I would think it will be somewhere between 3.08 to 4.56
How do gear wheels help make work easier using force?
Machines are used to supply energy to something. Energy supplied = Force x Distance moved in the direction of the force. Gear wheels usually have different numbers of teeth, so if they are arranged so that the force applied moves through a greater distance than the force being overcome (the load), then the applied force will be less than the load. For example, if force is applied to gear A with 10 teeth causes gear B with 100 teeth to move, then the applied torque will be 10 times less than the load torque.
What will vehicle speed without accelerator in first gear?
Well, an exact number will depends on your RPMs at idle, the gear ratio of that first gear, the gear ratio of your rear end gear, and tire size. Generally, five MPH or less.
How do you calculate the gear ratio on a bike?
Divide the number of teeth on the pedal gear by the number of teeth on the wheel gear. If you have multiple gears to choose from, you then have multiple ratios. If you are talking about a motorcycle, the same principle applies, but now you have more than one set of gears: the crank to countershaft primary set, the selected gear set, and the mainshaft to wheel set (if chain), or the two sets (mainshaft to shaftdrive and shaftdrive to wheel, if shaft drive). You need to multiply the ratios that are in series at any one moment of time to get the overall gear ratio from crank to wheel.
When was A Little Less Teeth created?
A Little Less Teeth was created in 2007.
