Answer:

C) 1200 rpm

Explanation:

D_1 = Diameter of bigger pulley = 24 inch

D_2 = Diameter of smaller pulley = 8 inch

N_1 = Speed of bigger pulley = 400 rpm

N_2 = Speed of smaller pulley

The relation between revolutions per minute and diameter is that they are inversely proportional.

\frac{N_1}{N_2}=\frac{D_2}{D_1}\\\Rightarrow \frac{400}{N_2}=\frac{8}{24}\\\Rightarrow N_2=\frac{24\times 400}{8}\\\Rightarrow N_2=1200\ rpm

The number of revolutions per minute of the smaller pulley is 1200 rpm
