PROBLEM 8.133
Solve Problem 8.113 assuming that the flat belt and pulleys
are replaced by a V belt and V pulleys with
36 .
(The
angle
is as shown in Figure 8.15a.)
PROBLEM 8.113 A flat belt is used to transmit a couple
from pulley A to pulley B. The radius of each pulley is 60
mm, and a force of magnitude
900 N
P
is applied as
shown to the axle of pulley A. Knowing that the coefficient
of static friction is 0.35, determine (a) the largest couple
that can be transmitted, (b) the corresponding maximum
value of the tension in the belt.
