Q3/ A pulley is driven by a flat belt, the angle of lap being 120°. The belt is 100 mm wide by 6 mm thick and density1000 kg/m3. If the coefficient of friction is 0.25 and the maximum stress in the belt is not to exceed 1.6 MN/m², find the greatest power which the belt can transmit and the corresponding speed of the belt.
