If gear 1 fits into the internal gear and is made to rotate, will the internal gear rotate with gear 1?

Will the Internal Gear Rotate with Gear 1? - Gear Rotation Question
Click For Summary
When gear 1 rotates, it will indeed cause the internal gear to rotate due to their interlocking teeth. The internal gear, with 9 teeth, will turn 4 times for every 3 rotations of the external gear with 12 teeth. The precise shape of the teeth is crucial for effective engagement and rotation. Users are encouraged to upload images directly to the forum for better visibility. Understanding the gear ratios is essential for predicting the movement of interconnected gears.

Yes - allowing for corrections to your artwork.
Since the internal gear has 9 teeth and the outside gear has 12 teeth, the inside gear will turn 4 times for each 3 time the outside gear turns.
Since they are so close (9 and 12), the exact shape of the teeth will be critical.
