Problem 2: A flat belt is used with a driving pulley (diameter 4 inches) and a driven pulley (diameter 18 inches) in a open configuration. The center distance between the pulleys is 48 inches. The friction coefficient between the belt and pulley is 0.6. Determine the following: a) If the belt is initially tensioned to 50 lbs, what is the force in the belt on the tight side just before slippage (neglect the centrifugal force of the belt). b) Find the maximum torque required at the driving pulley.
