A capstan and rope are used in a railway goods yard for moving trucks. The capstan runs at 50 rpm. The rope from the line of trucks makes 2.75 turns round the capstan at a radius of 20 cm and the free end of the rope is pulled with a force f 15 kg. Determine the pull on the trucks, the HP taken by the trucks, the HP Taken by the trucks and the HP supplied by the capstone. (Take μ=0.25)
