What is working of differential

Question

Accepted Answer

Differential is a device that splits torque between two wheels on an axle, allowing them to rotate at different speeds.

Differential is used in vehicles with two wheels on the same axle, such as cars and trucks.
It allows the wheels to rotate at different speeds while still receiving power from the engine.
The differential consists of a ring gear, pinion gear, and side gears.
When a vehicle turns, the outside wheel travels a greater distance than the inside wheel, and the differential allows for this difference in distance.
If one wheel loses traction, the differential sends power to the wheel with traction.
Limited-slip differentials are used in high-performance vehicles to improve traction and handling.
Some vehicles have locking differentials that can be engaged to provide equal torque to both wheels on an axle.
