Athree inch diameter pulley on an electric motor that runs at 1800
revolutions per minute is connected by a belt to a six inch
diameter pullley on a saw arbor.
angular speed = central angle/time, arc length = (central
angle)(radius)
a. find the angular speed (in radians per minute) of each. ( 3 in
and 6 in pully)
b. find the revolutions per minute of the saw.

a) 3 inch pulley: 11,309.7 radians/min

6) 6 inch pulley: 5654.7 radians/min

b) 900 RPM (revolutions per minute)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

When a pulley wirh radius R rotantes an angle θ, the arc length travelled by a point on its rim is Rθ.  Then the tangential speed V is related to angular speed  ω as:

When you connect two pulleys with a belt, if the belt doesn't slip, each point of the belt has the same speed as each point in the rim of both pulleys: Then, both pulleys have the same tangential speed:

We need to convert RPM to radias per minute. One revolution is 2π radians, then:

The saw rotates with the same angular speed as the 6 inch pulley: 900RPM
