A gear train is composed of four helical gears with the three shaft axes in a single plane, as shown in the figure. The gears have a normal pressure angle of 20 and a 30 helix angle. Gear 2 is the driver, and is rotating counterclockwise as viewed from the top. Shaft b is an idler and the transmitted load from gear 2 to gear 3 is 500 lbf. The gears on shaft b both have a normal diametral pitch of 7 teeth/in and have 54 and 14 teeth, respectively. Find the forces exerted by gears 3 and 4 on shaft b
