**Transcription:**

The diagram illustrates a simple epicyclic (planetary) gear system. It includes three primary components: the sun gear, planet gears, and ring gear. The sun gear is locked in this configuration.

**Gear Specifications:**
- Sun Gear (N₂): 38 teeth
- Planet Gear (N₄): 21 teeth
- Ring Gear (N₅): 80 teeth

In this setup, the carrier is rotating at 350 RPM. We need to determine the rotational speed of the ring gear.

**Options for the ring gear rotation speed:**
a) 510.8 RPM  
b) 516.3 RPM  
c) 521.1 RPM  
d) 525.9 RPM  
e) 530.2 RPM  
f) 534.7 RPM

This instructional content is tailored for educational purposes related to mechanical engineering focusing on gear systems and their rotational dynamics.
