A lathe having a 5-step pulley is driven by a belt, assumed to be crossed, from a pulley ofthe same size on the countershaft. The countershaft is to have a constant speed, and thelathe is to have speeds of 60 rpm and 135 rpm when the belt is on the steps either side ofthe center step. If the minimum speed is 40 rpm and the smallest diameter is 4 in., find theproper speed of the countershaft, maximum speed of the lathe, and the diameter of all stepson the pulleys.arrow_forwardA car goes around a curve on a road that is banked at an angleof 33.5°.
