Question: The following design specifications apply: The engine speed is 8 5 0 0 rpm . The transmission is in 5 t h gear where the

The following design specifications apply:
The engine speed is 8500 rpm .
The transmission is in 5th gear where the speed reduction ratio between the engine
and the transmission output is 0.952.(The transmission output turns faster than
the engine).
The speed reduction ratio between the transmission output and the rear wheel is
3.85.(The rear wheel turns slower than the transmission output.)
The rear wheel diameter is 675 mm and the front wheel diameter is 695 mm .
Flow in the hydraulic lines (flexible hoses and pipes) remains laminar (Re2300)
up to an engine speed of 8500 rpm .
The kinematic viscosity of a hydraulic fluid is 12.5 cSt .
The inner diameter of the hydraulic lines (except for the pump inlet line) is 38 inch
(9.52mm)
Determine:
(a) The hydraulic fluid flow velocity in ms.
(b) The hydraulic fluid volume flow rate in lmin.
(c) The transmission speed in [rpm].
(d) The rear wheel speed [rpm].
(e) The front wheel speed when the rear wheel maintains traction, in [rpm].
The following design specifications apply: The
