Solution
The correct option is C Gear 2:- Anticlockwise
Gear 3:- Clockwise
Gear 4:- Anticlockwise
A gear is a rotating machine part having grooves (called teeth or cogs) over its surface in such shape and form that it meshes with other gear. Gears are used to change the direction and speed of motion.
When two gears mesh together they move in opposite directions, i.e., if gear 1 moves in the clockwise direction then the gear adjacent to it moves in the opposite direction (anticlockwise). Therefore,
Gear 1 and 3:- Clockwise
Gear 2 and 4:- Anticlockwise
Gear 2:- Anticlockwise
Gear 3:- Clockwise
Gear 4:- Anticlockwise
