Given the picture above, if gear 4 turns clockwise, which other gear(s) will turn clockwise?
-
1 only
-
2 only
-
1 and 3
-
1, 2 and 3
Correct Answer
A. 2 onlyExplanation
When gears are interconnected, they turn in opposite directions. If gear 4 turns clockwise, then gear 2, which is connected directly to gear 4, will turn in the opposite direction, which is counterclockwise. Since gear 2 is connected directly to gear 1, this will cause gear 1 to turn clockwise. However, gear 3, connected to gear 2, will turn in the opposite direction of gear 2, which means clockwise.Rate this question:
