A belt having cross section of dimension 50 mm ´ 6 mm has an angle of lap of 190 on a pulley with diameter 800 mm. The pulley rotates at 240 rpm. If the material of the belt has a density of 3 2 1120 kg/m and withstand a maximum tensile stress of 1500 kN/m . Find (i) centrifugal tension and (ii) power transmitted. Take m = 0.3 between the belt and pulley.
