🔍 Key Concepts

• Speed vs torque tradeoff in gear reductions • Relationship between gear size (number of teeth) and rotational speed in a gear pair • Definition of drive pinion vs driven gear in a reduction gear train

💭 Think About

• If a small gear drives a large gear, what happens to the speed and torque of the large gear compared to the small one? • In a marine reduction gear, do we want the engine (input) to turn faster or slower than the propeller (output)? • Which component (drive pinion or driven gear) is typically connected to the high‑speed engine shaft, and which to the lower‑speed propeller shaft?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which is on the high-speed input shaft (engine) and which is on the low-speed output shaft (propeller). • Match gear size (small vs large) to relative speed (high vs low) based on basic gear ratios. • Eliminate any option where speed and size relationships conflict with reduction gearing (output must turn slower than input).

For a parallel axis single reduction gear, what statement is true?

The drive pinion is the smaller of the two gears and rotates at a relatively high-speed. The driven gear is the larger of the two gears and rotates at a relatively low speed.

The drive pinion is the smaller of the two gears and rotates at a relatively low speed. The driven gear is the larger of the two gears and rotates at a relatively high-speed.

The drive pinion is the larger of the two gears and rotates at a relatively high speed. The driven gear is the smaller of the two gears and rotates at a relatively low speed.
