While testing a wheat thresher at the recommended throughput, 80 N m torque is recorded at 750 rpm at the main shaft of the threshing cylinder, which is operated by a 200 mm diameter v-pulley. The overload factor and unit mass of the v-belt are 1.2 and 0.9 kg m-1, respectively. At the condition of maximum power transmission, the maximum tension in the v-belt in N is
