A belt drive consists of two v belts in parallel on a grooved pulley of the same size.the angle of the groove is 30°.the cross-sectional area of each belt is 750mm^2 and coefficient of is 0.22.the density of the belt material is 1.2Mg/m^3 and the maximum safe stress in the material is 7MPa. Calculate; (A) the power that can be transmitted between the pulleys 300mm diameter rotating at 1,500rpm (B) the speed of the shaft in rpm at which the power transmitted would be a maximum
