Maximum Permissible Tensile Stress of Belt Material Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Tensile Stress in Belt = Maximum Tension in Belt/(Width of Belt*Thickness of Belt)
σ = P_max/(b*t)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Tensile Stress in Belt - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Stress in Belt is defined as the tensile stress generated in the belt during operation.
Maximum Tension in Belt - (Measured in Newton) - Maximum Tension in Belt is the maximum amount of tensile force into the belt of a belt drive assembly.
Width of Belt - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Belt is defined as the width of the belt which we generally use in belt drives.
Thickness of Belt - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Belt is defined as the thickness of the belt that we use in the belt drives.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Tension in Belt: 1200 Newton --> 1200 Newton No Conversion Required
Width of Belt: 126 Millimeter --> 0.126 Meter (Check conversion here)
Thickness of Belt: 5 Millimeter --> 0.005 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

σ = P_max/(b*t) --> 1200/(0.126*0.005)

Evaluating ... ...

σ = 1904761.9047619

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1904761.9047619 Pascal -->1.9047619047619 Newton per Square Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1.9047619047619 ≈ 1.904762 Newton per Square Millimeter <-- Tensile Stress in Belt

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
