Question

If velocity is 5m/s, then velocity factor for generated teeth is

(a) 0.71

(b) 1.1

(c) 0.9

(d) 1.71

The question was posed to me while preparing for exams.

This doubt is from the Strength of Bevel Gears unit in module Bevel Gears, Worm Gears and FlyWheel of Machine Design

Right choice is (a) 0.71

Breaking it down, I'd say: C=5.6/5.6+√v.
