🔍 Key Concepts

• Reduction gear trains and how power is shared between multiple pinions or elements • What a quill shaft is and why high torsional flexibility might be desirable instead of rigidity • How torsional flexibility affects load sharing and gear tooth stress

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: If a shaft is highly torsionally flexible, does it tend to lock everything together rigidly, or allow some twisting so loads can adjust between connected elements? • Think about which option actually uses flexibility as an advantage—does flexibility help with alignment, lubrication, or sharing torque between multiple gears? • Consider what would happen to one pinion if another pinion took slightly more load—how could a flexible shaft change that situation?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which options talk about rigidity versus flexibility—do those ideas fit together or contradict? • Identify which choice is directly related to how load or torque is shared among multiple elements in the gear train. • Verify that the function you choose logically depends on torsional flexibility, not on unrelated systems like lubrication or axial alignment.
