2. A band brake uses a V-belt. The pitch diameter of the V-grooved sheave is 20 in. The
groove angle is 38 degrees. And the coefficient of friction is 0.25. For the dimensions shown
in the figure, determine the maximum horsepower rating for 300 rpm. Find also the normal
force acting on the band the bearing pressure per unit width of the band. Estimate the heat
