Two gears A and B are connected. A is larger than B. A counter clockwise arrow indicates T subscript small on gear B. Radius of gear B is R subscript small. An upward force F is applied on B at the connecting teeth of A and B. F = T subscript large over R subscript large.

Next, consider the FBD for the small gear.

The small gear must be in equilibrium; therefore, the sum of moments about shaft B must equal zero.
