Machine A drives gear A (20 teeth) which meshes with gear B (40 teeth) rotating at \(1500\ \text{rpm}\). The output of gear B drives a belt that turns a pulley of radius \(0.10\ \text{m}\) attached to a load. The belt drive efficiency is 90% and the gear mesh efficiency is 95%. The load requires a power of \(500\ \text{W}\). Calculate the minimum torque that must be supplied by the motor at gear A (in N·m, to 2 s.f.).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. 3.7 N·m (to 2 s.f.)
B. 5.0 N·m (to 2 s.f.)
C. 4.2 N·m (to 2 s.f.)
D. 3.1 N·m (to 2 s.f.)
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
3.7 N·m (to 2 s.f.)
