Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
- Gears could jam
Demonstration: A system of various sized gears which are able to interlock and interchange to produce different magnitudes of force on the drive shaft. These various sized gears while in series with the system can produce differential force applied on the drive shaft. This is a simple example of how a manual transmission works and how simple engineering can produce varied results .
