Question

The actual difference between the surface speed of the belt and pulley is known as ______.

A.

dressing

B.

torque

C.

slip

D.

creep

Correct option is C


Slip is the actual difference between the surface speed of the belt and the pulley in a belt drive system. It occurs when the belt does not move exactly at the same speed as the pulley, leading to a loss in power transmission.
Effects of Slip:
· Loss of Efficiency → Reduces power transmission.
· Heat Generation → Causes wear and tear on the belt.
· Reduced Machine Performance → Leads to speed variations.
