If you put magnets in a gear (like in an Internal Permanent Magnet motor), what effect would the gear's teeth have on the magnetic fields?
Magnetic fields will pass between gears through the moving contact areas on the teeth, but the possible repulsion will probably not prevent physical contact.James O'Neill said:If you put magnets in a gear, the gear won't turn, because the magnetic fields interfere with the contact area of the gear teeth against each other?
Magnets can affect gear teeth by either attracting or repelling them, causing the gears to move and rotate. The magnetic field can also change the speed and direction of the gears, depending on the strength and orientation of the magnets.
Yes, strong magnets can potentially damage gear teeth by exerting too much force on them. This can cause the teeth to break or wear down faster than they normally would.
Magnetic fields play an important role in gear systems by providing a force that can act on the gears and cause them to rotate. This allows for the transmission of power and motion between gears.
The strength of a magnetic field can affect gear teeth in various ways. A stronger magnetic field can exert a greater force on the gears, causing them to rotate faster or with more force. However, if the magnetic field is too strong, it can potentially damage the gear teeth.
Yes, there are several benefits to using magnets in gear systems. They can provide a strong and consistent force, allowing for precise and smooth movement of the gears. They also do not require any physical contact, reducing friction and wear on the gears. Additionally, magnets are durable and do not require frequent maintenance, making them a reliable choice for gear systems.
