We'll use the following formula to calculate the tension in the belt:
Where:
- Belt Speed (m/s) = (Angular Speed * Radius of Pulley A)
- Angular Speed (radians/s) = 20 rad/s (given)
- Radius of Pulley A (m) = Diameter of Pulley A / 2 = 0.254 m / 2 = 0.127 m
- Center Distance (m) = 0.6096 m (given)
- Coefficient of Friction = 0.3 (given)
- Belt Density (kg/m³) = 480.77 kg/m³ (given)
First, calculate the Belt Speed:
**2. Determine the vertical correction required to align Pulley A and Pulley B:**
We'll use trigonometry to calculate the vertical correction (h) needed to align Pulley A and
Pulley B. The formula is:
