Power is transferred between an electric motor and a pump with a chain drive. Calculate the required number of driven sprocket teeth and chain length if the motor and pump are 20 inches apart, and the driven shaft must rotate at 1800 r/min. The driving sprocket is installed directly on the motor shaft and has 30 teeth. The plate on the motor indicates a nominal speed of 1000 r/min. The chain has a pitch of 0.5 inches.
