Question B2 (10%) Two parallel shafts whose centers are 10 meters apart are connected by an open belt drive with a V-belt with a groove angle of 30°. The diameter of the larger pulley is 1000 mm and that of the smaller pulley is 400 mm. The smaller pulley is running at 1000 rpm to deliver 10 kW of power. The mass of the belt is 1 kg/m. Taking centrifugal tension into account, determine the minimal cross-sectional area if the allowable tensile stress of the belt is 5 MPa. The coefficient of friction between the belt and the pulleys is 0.25.
