QUESTION 2[15 Marks]
Figure Q2 shows the top half of a compound epicyclic gearset with input shaft I rotating at a constant speed of 800 rpm in clockwise direction and providing input power of 6 kW . Calculate the following:-
(i) The speed and direction of output shaft O and gear X if Annulus wheel A2 is rotating at 3500rpm in counter-clockwise direction.
(ii) The speed and direction of output shaft O and gear X if Annulus wheel A 2 is held stationary.
(iii) The braking torque (magnitude and direction) that must be applied to Annulus wheel A2 to hold it stationary, and assuming gear transmission efficiency is 90%.
Number of teeth:
S1=50,S2,=40
P1=25,P2,=40
x=50,O,=60
