A 75\,kW tractor supplies power to a rotary tiller through the PTO, which runs at a maximum of 540\,rpm. The tiller operates most efficiently at 1\,200\,rpm and must not receive more than 400\,Nm of torque. The transmission can be set with two gear stages, each having an integer ratio between 1\!:\!1 and 5\!:\!1 (input\!:\!output). Find a pair of gear ratios (stage 1 and stage 2) that will give the required tiller speed while keeping the torque below the 400\,Nm limit. If no such combination exists, state that it is not feasible.

Answer Options

A. Feasible with gear ratios 4:1 and 1:2
Correct Answer B. Not feasible with the given gear‑stage limits
C. Feasible with gear ratios 5:1 and 5:1
D. Feasible with gear ratios 3:1 and 2:1
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
Not feasible with the given gear‑stage limits
