A 5-in-wide Polyamide F-2 flat belt is used to connect 2.4 in diameter pulley to drive a larger pulley with an angular velocity ratio of 0.6. The center-to-center distance is 120 in. The angular speed of the small pulley is 1650 rev/min as it delivers 1.5 hp. The service is such that a service factor Ks of 1.2 is appropriate.

a. Estimate the centrifugal tension Fc and the torque T.
b. Estimate the allowable F1, F2, and Fi.
c. Check the friction development.
