For the given figure, the brake can sustain a torque of 350 N-m and coefficient of friction between the band and drum is 0.3, If the drum rotates in anticlockwise direction, find force in N.
(a) 804
(b) 756
(c) 850
(d) 900
The question was asked during an online interview.
My question is taken from Differential Band Brake topic in chapter Brakes and Dynamometers of Machine Dynamics
