Engineering Mechanics - PKRB: Impulse and Momentum - Discussion

A constant torque or twist of M = 0.4N • m is applied to the center gear A. If the system starts from rest, determine the angular velocity of each of the three (equal) smaller gears in 3 s. The smaller gears (B) are pinned at their centers, and the mass and centroidal radii of gyration of the gears are given in the figure.
