Technician A says that if starter drive clearance is too small, the starter will produce a noise during cranking. Technician B s
ays that if starter drive clearance is too large, the starter will produce a noise after cranking. Which technician is correct?
1 answer:
Answer:
Both Technicians A and B are wrong in there answers.
Explanation:
Starter Drives are rotating mechanical component use to drive another component (flywheel) to start an engine. And thus they are known as starters. Starters are smaller than the component they drive. They are found commonly in automobiles.
The starter and the driven component(gear) are supposed to fit closely, with some clearance between the two gears so as to operate without noise. When the<u> clearance is too small </u>there will be a <u>noise after cranking,</u> and when the <u>clearance is too great</u> there be <u>noise before cranking</u>.
Cranking simply means starting an engine or the initial rotating of an engine to start it.

The equivalent resistance of several devices connected in parallel is given by
where
are the resistances of the various devices. We can see that every time we add a new device in parallel, the term 
increases, therefore the equivalent resistance of the circuit 
decreases.
But Ohm's law:
tells us that if the equivalent resistance decreases, the total current in the circuit increases. The power dissipated through the circuit (and so, the heat produced) depends on the square of the current:
therefore if there are too many devices connected in parallel, this can be a problem because there could be too much power dissipated (and too much heat) through the circuit.
