When the speed of belt increases

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question restatement: When the speed of the belt increases, what happens to the parameters listed in the options?
Option 1: The coefficient of friction between the belt and pulley increases. In belt drives, the coefficient of friction is a material property and is not directly affected by the belt speed in the typical analysis. Therefore, claiming that friction coefficient increases with speed is not correct.
Option 2: The coefficient of friction between the belt and pulley decreases. Similarly, the friction coefficient itself doesn’t inherently decrease as speed rises; the material property remains essentially the same, and this option misrepresents how friction behaves in standard belt theory.
Option 3: The power transmitted will decrease. As belt speed v increases, centrifugal tension rises, which effectively reduces the net tight-side tension available for transmitting torque. Since power P = (T1 − T2) × v, if the effective driving tension decreases while speed goes up, the net effect can be a reduction in power transmission capacity. This aligns with the idea that higher speeds introduce greater centrifugal effects that diminish the available power transfer.
Option 4: The power transmitted will increase. This would be true only if net driving tension remained constant or increased with speed. However, due to centrifugal tension increasing with speed and reducing the effective tension difference, power transfer does not automatically rise with speed in the typical belt drive context. Thus this option contradicts the standard consequence of higher centrifugal effects at greater speeds.
To summarize the reasoning across options: the speed rise mainly influences centrifugal tension and effective driving tension rather than changing the intrinsic friction coefficient between belt and pulley. Since the net driving tension tends to diminish as speed increases, the transmitted power tends to decrease rather than increase.
