Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Diametrical pitch (P) is the number of teeth per inch of pitch diameter. It is calculated by dividing the number of teeth (N) by the pitch diameter (PD) in inches. The formula for diametrical pitch is:P = N / PDIn the given question, we are asked to compute diametrical pitch (P) for bevel gears. The correct answer is D) 3.1416/p, which is the formula for diametrical pitch.
