A multi-disc wet clutch is to transmit 120 Nm of torque at 1000 rpm using sintered friction material.
(i) Assuming uniform wear, find the outside and inside diameters required if ri = 0.577ro.
(ii) What is the power transmitted?
(iii) Using the diameters found in (i), determine the power transmitted when the clutch is new.
