Question

Write a rule that expresses angular velocity of the driver sprocket and the follower sprocket if the driver sprocket has 300 teeth and the follower sprocket has 15 teeth

Answer 1

ωd = ωf/20

Explanation:

We assume the rate of travel of teeth is the same in both cases, so the angular velocity is inversely proportional to the number of teeth. For ωd representing the driver angular velocity, and ωf representing the follower angular velocity, we have ...

ωd/ωf = 15/300

ωd = ωf/20
