2.2.2 Mechanical Gears

Step 1) Make a copy of 2.2.2 Mechanical Gears into your GTT Turn in Folder. 

Step 2) For each set of questions, you will need to build a mechanism similar to the one shown in the picture.  Step by step instructions for each build will not be given, so do the best you can based on the image provided. 

Step 3) Experiment with each build and answer the questions for that build before taking it apart 

Step 4) The videos below show you how basic VEX parts work together and how to build the base platform but will not give you step by step build instructions for the mechanisms you are exploring.
