A spur pinion gear of 120 mm diameter is required to transmit a power of 5 kW to a spur gear, with both gears having a pressure angle of 200. Given that the pinion rotates in the anticlockwise direction at 200 rpm, and that the velocity ratio for the two gears is 2.50, determine: i) The diameter and rotational speed of the driven gear. ii) The forces on each of the gears, and shown on a free-body diagram (b) How does one compute the deflection of a helical spring?
