The purpose of the drive shaft in a front-engine RWD vehicle is to: A. Multiply torque from the engine. B. Deliver torque from the transmission to the differential C. Deliver torque from the differential to the wheels D. Multiply torque from the differential.

The correct answer is B. Deliver torque from the transmission to the differential.<br /><br />In a front-engine RWD (rear-wheel drive) vehicle, the drive shaft, also known as the propeller shaft, is responsible for transmitting the engine's power from the transmission to the differential. The transmission converts the engine's rotational power into torque, which is then delivered to the differential through the drive shaft. The differential then splits the torque between the two rear wheels, allowing the vehicle to move forward.
