Gear A weighs 1 lb and has a radius of gyration of 1.3 in.; gear B weighs 6 lb and has a radius of gyration of 3 in.; gear C weighs 9 lb and has a radius of gyration of 4.3 in. Knowing a couple M of constant magnitude of 40 lb·in. is applied to gear A, determine 

(a) The angular acceleration of gear C, 

(b) The tangential force that gear B exerts on gear C.
