Question:

The setup shown is used to measure the output of a small turbine. When the flywheel is at rest, the reading of each spring scale is 70 N. If a 12.60 N m ⋅ couple must be applied to the flywheel to keep it rotating clockwise at a constant speed, determine
(a) The reading of each scale at that time,
(b) The coefficient of kinetic friction. Assume that the length of the belt does not change.
