In a gear box input torque is measured to be 1 kNm at a speed of 1440 rpm. Gear box has unknown arrangement of gears inside. But the output shaft rotates at 840 rpm in direction opposite to input shaft. If the efficiency of transmission is equal to 93%, torque required to hold the gear box will be equal to (a) 2594 Nm in the direction of rotation of input shaft (b) 2594 Nm in the direction of rotation of output shaft (c) 549 Nm in the direction of rotation of input shaft (d) 549 Nm in the direction of rotation of output shaft

In a gear box input torque is measured to be 1 kNm at a speed of 1440 rpm. Gear box has
unknown arrangement of gears inside. But the output shaft rotates at 840 rpm in direction
opposite to input shaft. If the efficiency of transmission is equal to 93%, torque required to
hold the gear box will be equal to
(a) 2594 Nm in the direction of rotation of input shaft
(b) 2594 Nm in the direction of rotation of output shaft
(c) 549 Nm in the direction of rotation of input shaft
(d) 549 Nm in the direction of rotation of output shaft
