Tension in Belt Due to Centrifugal Force Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Belt Tension due to Centrifugal Force = Mass of Meter Length of Belt*Belt Velocity^2
T_b = m*v_b^2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Belt Tension due to Centrifugal Force - (Measured in Newton) - Belt Tension due to Centrifugal Force is defined as the tension induced in the belt due to the centrifugal force.
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.
Belt Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Belt Velocity is defined as the velocity of the belt used in a belt drive.

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
Belt Velocity: 25.81 Meter per Second --> 25.81 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_b = m*v_b^2 --> 0.6*25.81^2

Evaluating ... ...

T_b = 399.69366

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

399.69366 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

399.69366 ≈ 399.6937 Newton <-- Belt Tension due to Centrifugal Force

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

Tension in Belt Due to Centrifugal Force Formula

Belt Tension due to Centrifugal Force = Mass of Meter Length of Belt*Belt Velocity^2
T_b = m*v_b^2

Define Centrifugal Force?

A force, arising from the body's inertia, which appears to act on a body moving in a circular path and is directed away from the center around which the body is moving.
