What are the corresponding speeds for gears 1-5 in a car?
1 Answers
The maximum speeds for gears 1-5 in a car are approximately 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 km/h respectively. Below is relevant information about gear positions: 1. Concept: Gear positions are adjustment devices that regulate a car's speed and traction force (torque). Lower gears correspond to slower speeds but provide greater traction force (torque). Higher gears allow faster speeds but offer less traction force (torque). Gears are generally divided into two main categories: forward gears and reverse gear. Engaging forward gears makes the car move forward, while engaging reverse gear makes it move backward. 2. Standard car gears: Most conventional cars have five forward gears and one reverse gear. First gear is the starting gear, offering the slowest speed (0-10 km/h) but the highest torque.
