Gears sound like magic, but they're simply science in action! Look at the diagram here and you'll see exactly how they work. Through 90 degrees and turn the back wheels. The middle of the rear axle of a rear-wheel drive car) uses aД¬one-shaped bevel gear to turn the driveshaft's power In a car, for example, the differential (a gearbox in You canДЄlso use specially shaped gears to make the power of a machine turn One turns clockwise, the second one must turn counterclockwise. Together, the second one always turns in the opposite direction. (Turn theД«lue wheel and the red wheel goes slower but has more force.) Wheel), it turns slower than the first one but with more force. Would make the blue wheel (with 20 teeth) go twice as fast but with halfДЄ pair of gears has more teeth than the first one (that is, if it's a larger Looking at ourДiagram below, turning the red wheel (with 40 teeth) Turns faster than the first one but with less force. So this arrangement means the second wheel Means it's a bigger-sized wheel), the second one has to turn round Gears together and the first one has more teeth than the second one (generally that Power from one gear wheel to another, you can do one of three things: You can have any number of gears connected together and they canД«e in different shapes and sizes. Running under the car that ultimately powers the wheels. That takes power from the engine) to the driveshaft In a bicycle, for example, it's gears (with the help of aД¬hain) that take power from the pedals to the back wheel. Gears are used for transmitting power from one part of a machine That's simply because the pedal wheel and the back wheel are some distance apart and a chain is the easiest way to link them together. Wheel you pedal with those on the back wheel. Lubricated chain connects together the gears (known as sprockets) on the In a bicycle, the gears don't link by meshing together directly. So the teeth of one wheel lock into the teeth of another that stops them slipping, which means power is transmitted In a car or a motorcycle, the gears 'mesh' An opened-up gearbox on show at Think Tank, the science museum in Birmingham, England. Or send the force of a machine off in another direction. They're a simple way to generate more speed or force Gears are helpful in machines of all kinds, not justД¬ars and cycles. Flick to a different gear and you can go incrediblyДЇast: you can magically make your wheels turn round much faster than Once you're back on the straight, it's aДifferent story. Much impossible unless you use the right gear to Have you ever tried pedaling a bicycle up a really steep hill? It's pretty
