Question 1: (1 point)

Two pulleys are connected by a 195.5 cm long belt. The

larger pulley has a diameter of 41 cm. The smaller pulley
has a diameter of 36 cm. If the belt makes one complete
revolution every 27.5 seconds, answer the following
questions:

You will not receive marks for reversing your answers
for the large and small pulley!

diam = 36 cm
diam = 41 cm
(a) Determine the angular velocity of the LARGER pulley in radians/second. Express your answer
to three significant figures. Do not include units in your answer.
(b) Determine the angular velocity of the SMALLER pulley in radians/second. Express your answer
to three significant figures. Do not include units in your answer.



Question 2: (1 point)
A set of reducing gears is used to raise the box
shown. The gear assembly B/C is welded together so
that gears B and C rotate at the same rate. Gear A is
rotating at 3 revolutions per minute. Given that the
diameter of gear A is 0.45 m, the diameter of gear B
is 0.8 m and the diameter of gear C is 0.055 m,
determine:



(a) The angular velocity of gear B in radians/minute. Express your answer to three significant figures. Do not include
units in your answer.
(b) The linear speed in metres/minute which the box is being raised. Express your answer to three significant figures.
Do not include units in your answer.



Question 3: (1 point)
For the rack and gear assembly shown, the gear has a radius of 85 mm. It rotates at a rate of 2.3
rpm. If the gear rotates for 0.2 minutes, how many millimeters will it move the rack vertically?
Express your answer tothree significant figures. Do not include units in your answer.
Recall that to express a number in scientific notation use a capital 'E'. For example 2390
would be expressed as 2.39E3, and 0.003456 would be expressed as 3.46E-3.

Question 4: (1 point)
For the pulley system shown, the pulley has a radius of 0.2 m. Through what
angle (in degrees) must the pulley rotate to raise the box 2.1 m? Express your
answer to three significant figures. Do not include units in your answer.

r = 0.2 m


Question 5: (1 point)
Find the length of the pulley belt
system shown if the belts cross
at right angles. The radii of the
pulleys are 13.4 cm.
Express your answer
to three significant digits.




Question 6: (1 point)
A spool of wire is
rolled out along a level
floor. If the radius of
the spool is 71.7 cm
and the spool makes
4.2 revolutions, what
length of wire (in cm)
is unwound?

Express your answer
to three significant
digits and do
not include the units
cm in your answer.
