Initial Tension in Belt given Velocity of Belt for Maximum Power Transmission Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Initial Tension in Belt = 3*Mass of Meter Length of Belt*Optimum Velocity of Belt^2
P_i = 3*m*v_o^2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Initial Tension in Belt - (Measured in Newton) - Initial Tension in Belt is defined as the tension given to the belt drive at the beginning.
Mass of Meter Length of Belt - (Measured in Kilogram per Meter) - Mass of Meter Length of Belt is the mass of 1-meter length of the belt simply mass per unit length of the belt.
Optimum Velocity of Belt - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Optimum Velocity of Belt is defined as the velocity with which the belt should be moving so that it can attain maximum power transmission.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mass of Meter Length of Belt: 0.6 Kilogram per Meter --> 0.6 Kilogram per Meter No Conversion Required
Optimum Velocity of Belt: 19.36 Meter per Second --> 19.36 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_i = 3*m*v_o^2 --> 3*0.6*19.36^2

Evaluating ... ...

P_i = 674.65728

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

674.65728 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

674.65728 ≈ 674.6573 Newton <-- Initial Tension in Belt

(Calculation completed in 00.006 seconds)

Optimum Velocity of Belt for Maximum Power Transmission

Go Optimum Velocity of Belt = sqrt(Initial Tension in Belt/(3*Mass of Meter Length of Belt))

Initial Tension in Belt Drive

Go Initial Tension in Belt = (Belt Tension on Tight Side+Belt Tension on Loose Side)/2

Belt Tension in Tight Side of Belt given Initial Tension in Belt

Go Belt Tension on Tight Side = 2*Initial Tension in Belt-Belt Tension on Loose Side

Belt Tension in Loose Side of Belt given Initial Tension in Belt

Go Belt Tension on Loose Side = 2*Initial Tension in Belt-Belt Tension on Tight Side

Initial Tension in Belt given Velocity of Belt for Maximum Power Transmission Formula

Initial Tension in Belt = 3*Mass of Meter Length of Belt*Optimum Velocity of Belt^2
P_i = 3*m*v_o^2

Defiine Optimum Velocity of a Body?

Optimum velocity is the velocity with which the body should be moving so that it can attain all the processes. For example, there is the optimum velocity for the body to be in stream-lined motion and so on. Maximum means over limit while optimum means right/perfect amount.
