Question: A winch is driven by a Belt Drive System as shown in the following figure. The large pulley ( Driven Pulley ) and winding drum

A winch is driven by a "Belt Drive System" as shown in the following figure. The large pulley (Driven Pulley) and winding drum have a combined mass moment of inertia IL-Pulley+Drum=1.165ftlbs2. Pulley "B" is attached to the "drive motor" which applies a torque of TM=40lbft to this pulley. Determine the speed of the 250lb crate after the motor has made 5 revolutions starting from rest. Assume the mass of the pulley "B" is negligible (i.e.IB=0).
Answer: Vcrate=3.129ft/s
