Step 1
Determine the number of teeth on the first gear (Gear 1). To find the number of teeth on Gear 1, we can use the formula: Number of teeth on Gear 1 = Gear ratio * Number of teeth on Gear 2 Number of teeth on Gear 1 = 50 * Number of teeth on Gear 2 Show more…

In an epicyclic gear train, as shown in Fig.13.33, the number of teeth on wheels A, B and C are 48, 24 and 50 respectively. If the arm rotates at 400 r.p.m., clockwise, find : 1. Speed of wheel C when A is fixed, and 2. Speed of wheel A when C is fixed.
