Question

11. A belt is required to transmit 8 kW from a pulley 1 m in diameter running at 300 rpm. The angle of
embraced is 165° and the coefficient of friction between the belt and the pulley is 0.3. If the safe working
stress for belt is 1.3 MPa, density of belt is 0.8 kg/m3 and the thickness of belt is 11 mm. determine the
width of the belt taking centrifugal tension into account.​
