Question: For the planetary gear train shown: N 2 = 2 0 t , N 4 = 4 0 t , N 5 = 1 8

For the planetary gear train shown:
N2=20t,N4=40t,N5=18t,N6=36t,N7=154t
3 is the arm (carrier) connecting planet gears N4 and N5. Inputs are the ring gear with an angular velocity of 100 rpm ccw and the arm with an angular velocity of 50 rpm cw ,
Gears 5 and 6 are on the same shaft.
Gears 5 and 4 are meshed. Gears 4 and 2 are meshed.
3 denotes the carrier (arm).
a. Determine the angular velocity of planet gear 5. What are the gear sets and gear ratio for this question?
b. Determine the angular velocity of the sun gear. What are the gear sets and gear ratio for this question?
For the planetary gear train shown: N 2 = 2 0 t ,
