A conveyor belt is driven by a 15" diameter pulley. The conveyor starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate to 100 RPM in 4 seconds, stays at that speed for 3.2 seconds, and then slows to a stop at a constant rate in 3.9 seconds.

a) How far will an object on the conveyor travel during this time?

b) What is the maximum speed of the belt?
