Manual Transmission Aut-103 week 8

The spur gear is:

• Straight cut

• Angle cut

• Cut on two diagonal lines

• a very quite running gear set

When a small gear is driving a larger gear you will have:

• Underdrive

• Overdrive

• A speed increase

• A torque decrease

The Helical gear is:

• Cut with straight teeth

• Cut with a double offset

• A noisy gear set

• Cut on an angle

When a large gear is driving a smaller gear you will have:

• A speed decrease in the driven gear

• A torque increase in the drive gear

• Overdrive

• Underdrive

What is double clutching and when is it typically used?

• Double clutching is a technique used in automatic transmission vehicles to smoothly shift gears.

• Double clutching is a technique used in motorcycles to increase speed.

• Double clutching is a technique used in electric vehicles to conserve battery power.

• Double clutching is a technique used in manual transmission vehicles to smoothly shift gears.

What is the purpose of synchronizers in a manual transmission?

• To increase fuel efficiency

• To reduce engine noise

• To match the rotational speeds of the gears before engaging them

• To prevent gear slippage

The function of the manual transmission detent is: NOTE! There maybe more than one correct answer

• To prevent the engagement of two gears at the same time.

• To properly position the shift rod, fork and synchronizer.

• To provide for a positive shift feel.

• To prevent damage to the gears during shifting.

The manual transmission interlock mechanism is used to:

• Interlock the synchronizer sleeve to the speed gear

• Prevent the engagement of two gears at the same time.

• Engage reverse idler gear

• Interlock the transfer case to the transmission.

How does a clutch work in a manual transmission?

• A clutch in a manual transmission is responsible for changing gears.

• A clutch in a manual transmission controls the speed of the vehicle.

• A clutch in a manual transmission is used to engage the brakes.

• A clutch in a manual transmission connects and disconnects the engine from the transmission.

Match the following

• B. Spur gears

• Gears with teeth cut on an angle. Used in manual transmissions and transaxle final drives.

• A. bevel gears

• Used as part of planetary gears in an automatic transmission.

• D. ring gear

• Straight-cut gears that may be used for reverse gears in a manual transmission.

• C. helical gears

• Used to connect shafts that are not parallel to each other. Mainly used in final drives and transaxles
