a. Because of the COVID 19 pandemic, a company in Ghana was contracted by AIT to produce nose masks for distribution to students. This company has a belt drive facility that dispatches the nose masks from the producing house to the packaging house. The mass of the normal force between the belt and its driver wheel is 880kg. Show the steps which will be taken to determine the maximum force that can be transmitted when the belt is running at a constant speed. Assuming the dynamic coefficient of friction is 0.77. What would be the work done and the kinetic energy in this instance, if the velocity is 20km/h and the distance between the producing house and the packaging house is 90 m?

Question

a. Because of the COVID 19 pandemic, a company in Ghana was contracted
by
AIT to produce nose masks for distribution to students. This company
has a belt drive facility that dispatches the nose masks from the
producing house to the packaging house. The mass of the normal force
between the belt and its driver wheel is 880kg. Show the steps which
will be taken to determine the maximum force that can be transmitted
when the belt is running at a constant speed. Assuming the dynamic
coefficient of friction is 0.77. What would be the work done and the
kinetic energy in this instance, if the velocity is 20km/h and the distance
between the producing house and the packaging house is 90 m?
