This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Torque Exerted on Pulley - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Torque Exerted on Pulley is described as the turning effect of force on the axis of rotation. In brief, it is a moment of force. It is characterized by τ.
Tension in Tight Side of Belt - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in Tight Side of Belt is described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object.
Tension in Slack Side of Belt - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in Slack Side of Belt is described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object.
Diameter of Follower - (Measured in Meter) - The diameter of follower is a chord that runs through the center point of the circle. It is the longest possible chord of any circle.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Tension in Tight Side of Belt: 22 Newton --> 22 Newton No Conversion Required
Tension in Slack Side of Belt: 11 Newton --> 11 Newton No Conversion Required
Diameter of Follower: 0.014 Meter --> 0.014 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

τ = (T₁-T₂)*d_f/2 --> (22-11)*0.014/2

Evaluating ... ...

τ = 0.077

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.077 Newton Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.077 Newton Meter <-- Torque Exerted on Pulley

Which pulley turns faster?

If a smaller pulley turns a larger one, the larger one will turn slower, but with more power available at the shaft. If a bigger pulley turns a smaller one, the smaller one will turn much faster than the bigger one but with less power available at the shaft.

What is a belt drive used for?

Belt drive, in machinery, a pair of pulleys attached to usually parallel shafts and connected by an encircling flexible belt (band) that can serve to transmit and modify rotary motion from one shaft to the other.
