Question: 2 . A gearset ( the pressure angle ( 1 4 . 5 ^ { circ } ) ) of spur gears

2. A gearset (the pressure angle \(14.5^{\circ}\)) of spur gears is operating on the two parallel shafts as shown Figure P2(a). On Gear 1, an input torque T=12 lb-in is applied through its shaft. Due to the resistance torque applied to Gear 2, the gearset is operating at a constant speed. The pitch diameters of Gear 1 and 2 are 2 in and 3 in, respectively. The two shafts are supported by bearings (denoted by triangles in Figure P2(a)). The specific location of Gear 2 and the bearings on Shaft 2 is shown in Figure P2(b). Ignore friction and gravity.
Find the supporting force vectors from Bearing L and Bearing R to Shaft 2. Present the force vectors in the form of \(\left(f_{\mathrm{x}},\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{v}}\right)\).
