How to Calculate Load on Idler in Belt Friction System?
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on calculating the load on an idler in a belt friction system. The key formula involves taking the square root of 2 multiplied by the load calculated in part b of the problem. Participants emphasize the importance of summing the two load vectors to arrive at the correct loading on the idler. This method provides a clear and definitive approach to solving part c of the problem.
