The torque available at the driven wheel or pulley can be expressed as

T = (F₂ - F₁) r_a         (1)

where

T = torque (Nm)

F = force (N)

r = radius wheel or pulley

The available power can be expressed as

P = T ω_a = (F₂ - F₁) r_a         (2)

where

P = power transmitted (Watts)

ω = angular velocity (rad/s)
