Example 20.7. A rope pulley with 10 ropes and a peripheral speed of 1500 m/min transmits 115 kW. The angle of lap for each rope is 180° and the angle of groove is 45°. The coefficient of friction between the rope and pulley is 0.2. Assuming the rope to be just on the point of slipping, find the tension in the tight and slack sides of the rope. The mass of each rope is 0.6 kg per metre length.
