Gears are supposed to be softer than worms or pinions so they don't cause as much wear. Each tooth of a worm or pinion meshes with the teeth of the gear many more times in it's life than a tooth on the larger gear, two hard teeth meshing will wear more than a hard ans soft teeth. Having a steel gear would cause the worm to wear out too fast. Ideally the worm wheel should be phosphor bronze but bronze is expensive and plastic is cheap.

zysi [14]

Answer:

There will be an increase in the level of nitrogen dioxide and a decrease in the level of ground-level ozone.

Explanation:

Ozone is a gas normally found in stratosphere, where it protects us from solar radiation. However, under certain circumstances, it can be formed on the ground level.

Conditions that have to be met in order for this to happen are existing of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (VOC) (both formed from the factories, industry and transport) and their reaction catalyzed by heat and light.

During dark, cold and cloudy days, due to the lack of heat and light from the Sun, formation of ozone will be decreased.

Also, this will enable building up of nitrogen dioxide, due to the same reason, leading to increased concentration.
