A bicycle's gear ratio is the number of times the freewheel turns for every one turn of the chainwheel. The table shows the numbers of teeth in the freewheel and chainwheel for the first five gears of an 18-speed touring bicycle. The chainwheel completes one rotation for each gear. Find the angle through which the freewheel turns for each gear. Give your answers in both radians and degrees. Table: Gear #:1, 2, 3, 4, 5 #Teeth (freewheel):32, 26, 22, 32, 19 #Teeth(chainwheel):24, 24, 24, 40, 24
I just need to know how to figure out how to set up the problem. I don't necessarily need to know the setup, just how to go about figuring it out.
