An aluminum bar of solid circular cross section is twisted by torques T acting at the ends (see figure). The dimensions and shear modulus of elasticity are as follows:
L = 1.4 m, d = 32 mm, and G = 28 GPa.
(a) Determine the torsional stiffness of the bar.
(b) If the angle of twist of the bar is 5°, what is the maximum shear stress? What is the maximum shear strain (in radians)?
