### Gear Speed Calculation

**Problem Statement:**
A pair of spur gears with a 20-degree tooth form transmits 1.0 hp. The pinion is mounted on the shaft of an electric motor operating at 3600 rpm. The pinion has 24 teeth and a diametral pitch of 24. The gear has 96 teeth.

**Question:**
Determine the speed of the gear.

**Given Data:**
- Pinion Teeth: 24
- Pinion Diametral Pitch: 24
- Gear Teeth: 96
- Pinion Rotational Speed: 3600 rpm

**Calculation:**
To determine the speed of the gear, we can use the gear ratio. The gear ratio (GR) is defined as the ratio of the number of teeth on the gear (N_Gear) to the number of teeth on the pinion (N_Pinion):

\[ \text{GR} = \frac{N_{\text{Gear}}}{N_{\text{Pinion}}} = \frac{96}{24} = 4 \]

The speed of the gear (
