If pulley a turn clockwise at 15 rpm how fast and what direction will pulley b turn?

1 Answer

Answer :

A simple enough question, but complicated by so many possible variations. For instance, place two cog wheels together so that their teeth mesh. Turn cog A clockwise and cog B will turn anticlockwise (counterclockwise in America). But if you replaced the toothed cogs with a pair of single pulley wheels with some distance apart. Pulling on the rope would turn the top pulley A clockwise and the pulley wheel B clockwise also. But, let us suppose that the rope has been deliberately twisted (not straightly laid) then the pulley B would be turning anticlockwise when the pullet A was turning clockwise.The rate of travel (RPM) would depends on the diametres of the pulley wheels - variations once more!

Description : Two trains are running at 120 km/hr and 60km/hr respectively in the same direction. Fast train completely passes a boy sitting in the slower train in 15 seconds. What is the length of the fast train? A) 150m B) 550 m C) 250m D) 215m 

Last Answer :  ANSWER: C  Explanation:  Speed of the 1st train = 120km/hr  Speed of the 2nd train = 60km/hr If the direction is given in the same direction then we subtract the relative speed.  Relative speed = (120 - 60) ... / 3 * 15)m  =(750/3)m  = 250m  Therefore the length of the faster train is 250m
