Here are the answers to three questions from Section B:

1a. Define three (3) types of drive mechanisms.

  1. Define Belt Drive.

    A belt drive uses a flexible belt to connect two or more rotating shafts mechanically, transmitting power efficiently over long distances.

  2. Define Chain Drive.

    A chain drive uses a roller chain to transmit mechanical power from one sprocket to another, commonly found in bicycles and motorcycles for robust power transfer.

  3. Define Gear Drive.

    A gear drive uses meshed gears to transmit rotational motion and torque between shafts, allowing for changes in speed and direction.

    1b. State two (2) uses of gear.

  4. State the first use.

    • Gears are used to change the speed of rotation between shafts.
  5. State the second use.

    • Gears are used to change the direction of rotation of a shaft.

    2b. Differentiate between supplementary and complementary angle.

  6. Define complementary angles.

    Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 90∘90^\circ. For example, 30∘30^\circ and 60∘60^\circ are complementary angles.

  7. Define supplementary angles.

    Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 180∘180^\circ. For example, 70∘70^\circ and 110∘110^\circ are supplementary angles.
