Question: The power flow through a five-speed transmission while it is in first gear: Power enters on the input shaft, which rotates the countershaft that is

  1. The power flow through a five-speed transmission while it is in first gear:

  1. Power enters on the input shaft, which rotates the countershaft that is engaged with first gear.
  2. The first gear synchronizer engages with the clutching teeth of first gear and locks the gear to the main shaft, allowing power to flow from the input gear through the countershaft and to first gear and the main shaft.
  3. Both "Power enters on the input shaft, which rotates the countershaft that is engaged with first gear" and "The first gear synchronizer engages with the clutching teeth of first gear and locks the gear to the main shaft, allowing power to flow from the input gear through the countershaft and to first gear and the main shaft".
  4. Neither "Power enters on the input shaft, which rotates the countershaft that is engaged with first gear" and "The first gear synchronizer engages with the clutching teeth of first gear and locks the gear to the main shaft, allowing power to flow from the input gear through the countershaft and to first gear and the main shaft".
