In a belt drive the motor pulley has a diameter of 250 mm and rotates at 420 RPM. The machine pulley diameter is 350mm.
a) Determine the linear velocity of the belt and the rotational frequency of the machine pulley.
b) If the motor pulley accelerates from rest at 2 rads/s^2 how long does it take the motor pulley to reach 420 RPM.
