How it works
A **serial** gear train: neighboring gears mesh, so line speed at the pitch circle matches. Angular speeds satisfy **Ļįµ¢āā = āĻįµ¢ (Tįµ¢/Tįµ¢āā)**. Intermediate tooth counts cancel in the overall **speed ratio**: **|Ļ_out/Ļ_in| = T_first/T_last**. For ideal power (no slip, no losses), **Ļ_out/Ļ_in ā T_last/T_first** ā trade speed for torque.
Key equations
Ļįµ¢āā = āĻįµ¢ Ā· (Tįµ¢ / Tįµ¢āā), Ā P = ĻĻ ā const
