      The things is actually you can spin the last gear. But with very very low speed. It requires high power when you want to rotate it with same speed of the first gear.
      In theory you need same force for rotation the same one for last one

    • @Dennis19901
      @Dennis19901 3 роки тому +52

      Torque and RPM work proportional though. Torque does not in any way have anything to do with "energy exploits".
      If we assume that friction does not exist for a moment. If he would turn the last gear with some X torque, the output gear would turn with x / 65k torque. Albeit turning very fast, it has next to zero torque.
      That's also why heavy machinery doesn't go fast at all with massive amounts of wattage in their engines (a tank for example). It needs more torque and less rpm to be of any use.

      It would not be as the force required to rotate the last gear exceeds the maximum yield strength of the material the gear is made off. Meaning you would shear the teeth off the gear box before you could achieve any rotation.

      @@lilapela Each stage multiplies the total torque (friction + inertia) by the gear ratio. When run in the "normal" direction, the gear ratio helps overcome both friction and inertia. If there was no friction at all, it would still require 65000 times as much torque; possibly more than the plastic gear can stand without breaking. But I'm likewise pretty sure that if you had all the time in the world and none of the friction, it would eventually get moving under otherwise reasonable conditions.

      Yes, inertia may be the biggest factor here.
      Also, it is worth noting that speeds multiply by the same factor. If the last gear was spun so that it's outside moves at mere 1 cm/s, the first gear's outside would move at 650 m/s, almost twice the speed of sound.

    A way I like to think about it after designing a few gear trains is as, as speed increases torque decreases. The power of a gear train is constant. For those who don’t know a gear trains purpose is to modify speed, or force but inevitably is going to do both.

If the entire system was brought up to speed slowly, the inertia of the system should eventually be such that the motion of the final gear could be maintained with relatively little force. The only road block I see is the first gear would probably be close to the speed of light.
