Gears – Beneficial or hindrance

Gears are kind of a product which is using by almost all of us but some how we our self don’t notice that we are that much big user of gears.

Gears are of many types. Hence, used in many different product to make it fast and efficient. It not only gives you smoothness of work, it also reduces man effort in the mechanism.

We are using gears almost every day – examples – Car, bicycle, clock, hand pump, motor bike, lift, escalator, machines, wall fans, juicers, grinders, mixtures, some home tools etc

Does it not tell us that we use gears in our daily life.

Gears are beneficial because it ease our work which could take most of our time, if these gears would not be in place. It increases our efficiency and gives us result faster than what we think. Few examples -

Car – we reach other place in lesser time than walking.

Escalators – Moves us up and down ward quicker than our speed on ladders.

Juicer – It gives us fresh juice in minute’s time. However, if today we decide to take a juice of an apple it may take hour of ours.

Machine – Do our work more faster/efficient/and smooth.

Hence, I can say it is a beneficial product for us.

On the other side of the coin, I can see some drawbacks of the gears.

It stops us doing any work.

It reduces our time and effort and gradually we are becoming effortless.

Gears are doing work easier and we are doing some work which needs less amount of power.

We are somehow moving away from hand work.

Examples –

Car – we can reach to other place in minutes but if missed a walk

Escalator – we are on top floor but missed our legs exercise

I have shown/shared my thinking. Feel free to tell me what you think about it…
