The overhead transmission shaft AE is driven at a constant speed by an electric motor

Chapter 4, Problem 4.105

(choose chapter or problem)

The overhead transmission shaft AE is driven at a constant speed by an electric motor connected by a flat belt to pulley B. Pulley C may be used to drive a machine tool located directly below C, while pulley D drives a parallel shaft located at the same height as AE. Knowing that \(T_B + T^{\prime}_B = 36 \ \mathrm{lb}, T_C = 40 \ \mathrm{lb}, T^{\prime}_C = 16 \ \mathrm{lb}, T_D = 0\), and \(T^{\prime}_D = 0\), determine (a) the tension in each portion of the belt driving pulley B, (b) the reactions at the bearings A and E caused by the tension in the belts.
