Question: VII. [ total: 1 5 % ] The spur gears in Figure 4 have a module of 6 mm and a ( 2

VII. [total: 15\%] The spur gears in Figure 4 have a module of 6 mm and a \(25^{\circ}\) pressure angle. The 18-teeth gear 2 rotates at \(2100\mathrm{rev}/\mathrm{min}\) clockwise and transmits 400 kW through a gear train to gear 4 on shaft \( c \).
(a) Find the angular velocity and the rotation direction of gear 4.[2\%]
(b) Determine the torque that gear 3 transmits to gear 4.[2\%]
(c) Find the force that gear 2 and gear 4 export against shaft \( b \).[5\%]
(d) If the center distance between shafts \( a \) and \( b \) was incorrectly made 3 mm larger, find the new values of the pressure angle and the pitch-circle diameters for the gear set of gears 2 and 3.[6\%]
