Question

1. The planetary gear system is used in an automatic transmission for

an automobile. By locking or releasing certain gears, it has the advantage of

operating the car at different speeds. Consider the case where the ring gear

R is held fixed, R = 0, and the sun gear S is rotating at ws = 5 rad/s.

Determine the angular velocity of each of the planet gears P and shaft A.
