The ratio of driving tensions for flat belts, neglecting centrifugal tension, is (where T1 and T2 = Tensions on the tight and slack sides of belt respectively, $$\mu $$ = Coefficient of friction, between the belt and pulley and $$\theta $$ = Angle of contact)
A. $$\frac{{{{\text{T}}_1}}}{{{{\text{T}}_2}}} = \mu \theta $$
B. $$\log \frac{{{{\text{T}}_1}}}{{{{\text{T}}_2}}} = \mu \theta $$
C. $$\frac{{{{\text{T}}_1}}}{{{{\text{T}}_2}}} = {\text{e}}\mu \theta $$
D. $$\frac{{{{\text{T}}_1}}}{{{{\text{T}}_2}}} = \log \mu \theta $$
