Measure, analyze, think
- Make your own recording
- Perform experiments with your model and discuss in your group what has happened.
Explore and modify
- Pick one of the three versions, build it
- Make your own drawing of the gear systems (i.e. on paper)
- Write down the numbers of teeth on each pair of the gear wheels
- Figure out the ratio of each pair of gear wheels
- Make or calculate your guess about the final ratio of gear wheels
- Perform measurement with the model and program and compare
- Try to invent some other combinations of gears, repeat the whole procedure with them (this can be an alternative project for an advanced group instead of the above)
- Could you list all the possible combinations using these 8 gear wheels that could be built?
Present
- Think about a manual transmission in cars, how does it work? And how does automatic transmission work?
- What do fractions have to do with the car transmission?
- Is it only the speed of rotation that is being changed in the gear box? What else?
