Problem

A belt runs without slipping over a small motor pulley of radius 0.080 m0.080\,\text{m} and a larger driven pulley of radius 0.24 m0.24\,\text{m}. The motor pulley rotates at 1500 rev/min1500\,\text{rev/min}. Determine (i) the angular speed of the larger pulley in radians per second and (ii) how many complete revolutions the larger pulley makes in 30 s30\,\text{s}. Provide both answers.
