If there is no slip and the creep in the transmission, then whatis the equation for the velocity ratio in the open belt drive?
Velocity ration (V.R) in an open belt drive = $$\frac{N_2}{N_1}=\frac{D_1}{D_2}[1-(\frac{S_1+S_2}{100})]$$
where $$N_1,N_2$$ are speeds of belt 1 and 2 respectively.
$$D_1,D_2$$ are diameter of pulleys 1 and 2 respectively.
$$S_1,S_2$$ are slips occurred in belts 1 and 2 respectively.
In case of no slip, $$S_1=S_2=0$$
=> $$\frac{N_2}{N_1}=\frac{D_1}{D_2}$$
=> Ans - (C)
