Angular Velocity of Meshed Gears
Two gears A and B are meshed together. Gear A has twice the radius of gear B and rotates clockwise at 6 rad/s when viewed along the positive z-axis. If the rotation axis of gear B is parallel to the negative z-axis, how would an observer describe gear B’s rotation when looking along gear B’s axis?
A
Counterclockwise at 12 rad/s
B
Clockwise at 12 rad/s
C
Clockwise at 3 rad/s
D
Counterclockwise at 3 rad/s
