A leather faced cone clutch transmits power at 500 rpm. The semi-cone angle a is 12.5°. The mean diameter of the clutch is 300 mm, while the face width of the contacting surface of the friction lining is 100 mm. The coefficient of friction is 0.2 and the maximum intensity of pressure is limited to 0.07 N/mm2. Calculate the force to engage the clutch and the power transmitting capacity.
