Second gear:
For second gear, gear A meshes along gear B & gear E meshes along gear F.
. . . (10.3)
From equation (10.2) and (10.3)
1.12 tF + tF = 60
Or,
tF = 60/ 2.12 = 28.3 ∴ tE = 60 - tF
or,
tE = 60 - 28.3 = 31.7
As number of teeth needs to be in full number. Thus, tF may be either 28 or 29 and tE may be either 31 or 32. If tF = 28 and tE = 32.
Second gear ratio =
If tF = 29 & tE = 31.
