In summary, the conversation is about a student who has been assigned a project by their teachers to demonstrate the ratio between velocity and torque. They are specifically looking to show the gear ratio in their project and are seeking advice on whether this ratio remains constant when using different number of gears. The conversation also touches upon the importance of power in this experiment and suggests searching for "bicycle gear experiments" for more information.

i have been given ap project by my teachers to show the ratio between velocity and torque .
i.e i have to show the gear ratio in my project.
can some one tell me whether the ratio b/w torque and velocity remains constant if we use different number of gears .
also if some one can give me any advise regarding my project
shall be very thankful

Do you have a bicycle, or access to one with gears?
Gears on a bike can be used very conveniently to show how velocity, torque (AND POWER, which is very important in this respect) are related. Google "bicycle gear experiments". I did and found pages and pages of stuff.
 

What is the purpose of the project?

The purpose of the project is to demonstrate the ratio between two quantities or values, and to show how this ratio can be calculated and interpreted in different scenarios.

What is a ratio?

A ratio is a comparison between two quantities or values. It tells us how many times one quantity is contained in or is equivalent to another quantity.

How is the ratio calculated?

The ratio is calculated by dividing one quantity by the other. For example, if we have 3 apples and 2 oranges, the ratio of apples to oranges would be 3:2, or 1.5. This means that for every 3 apples, there are 2 oranges.

What is the significance of the ratio?

The significance of the ratio depends on the context in which it is used. It can represent a relationship between two things, a proportion, or a comparison of quantities. Ratios are often used to analyze and interpret data, and can help us make predictions and decisions.

Can the ratio be simplified?

Yes, the ratio can be simplified by dividing both quantities by their greatest common factor. This results in an equivalent ratio that is easier to work with and interpret.
