Question: 7 . A 2 - tooth right hand worm transmits 1 hp at 1 2 0 0 rpm to a 3 0 - tooth worm

7. A 2-tooth right hand worm transmits 1 hp at 1200 rpm to a 30-tooth worm gear. The gear has a transverse diametral pitch of 6 teeth/in and a face width of \(1\mathrm{in}\). The worm has a pitch diameter of 2 in and a face width of 2.5 in . The normal pressure angle is \(14.5^{\circ}\). The arrows indicate the direction of the three forces acting on the gear. The gear is supported by bearings \( A \) and \( B \). The axial resistance force on the shaft can be assumed at position \( B \).(15' in total)
(1) Find the axial pitch, the pitch diameter of the gear, the lead, and the lead angle.
(2) Find the pitch line speed of the worm and gear.
(3) Find the forces on the gear.
(4) Find the forces exerted by the bearings \( A \) and \( B \) against the worm-gear shaft.
(5) Find the output torque by the gear shaft. Schematic Figure for Problem \#7
