Answer

The angular speed of pulley B' is $~~15~rad/s$

Work Step by Step

We can find the linear speed of a point on belt 1: $v = \omega_A~R_A$ $v = (10~rad/s)(0.15~m)$ $v = 1.5~m/s$ We can find the angular speed of pulley B: $\omega_B = \frac{v}{R_B}$ $\omega_B = \frac{1.5~m/s}{0.10~m}$ $\omega_B = 15~rad/s$ The angular speed of pulley B is $~~15~rad/s$ Since pulley B' is rigidly attached to pulley B, they have the same angular speed. The angular speed of pulley B' is $~~15~rad/s$
