Q.  
For spur with gear ratio greater than one, the interference is most likely to occur near the


Answer & Explanation

For spur with gear ratio greater than one, that is, the addendum of the wheel is more than a limit, the tip of the wheel tooth will be in contact with a portion of the non-involute profile of the pinion tooth. This takes place at the beginning of the contact.

Thus correct option is: B.
