Question

I would like to know the gear ratio and the tractive effort that a trolley must achieve with the following motor specifications:

Voltage: 600 volts
Speed: 1750 to 2300 RPM
Current: 84 Amps
Rated Power: 50-55 HP

What percentage should be considered for gear efficiency, and what safe margin should be applied in these calculations?

The constraints for the truck trolley are as follows:
Maximum Speed: 50 MPH
Weight of the Car Body: 46,000 lbs (the trolley weighs approximately 44,000 lbs)
Diameter wheels: 86 inches
Additionally, I would like to know how to plot a graph of tractive effort (in grams) versus speed (in MPH).
