Question: 4 . ) A solid 2 . 5 in . diameter cold - rolled brass G = 6 , 4 0 0 ksi shaft that

4.) A solid 2.5 in. diameter cold-rolled brass G=6,400ksi shaft that is L1+L3=123in. long extends
through and is completely bonded to a hollow aluminum [G=3,800 ksi ] tube, as shown in the
figure. Aluminum tube (1) has an outside diameter of 3.750 in ., an inside diameter of 2.500 in ., and
a length of L1=64in. Both the brass shaft and the aluminum tube are securely attached to the wall
support at A. External torques in the directions shown are applied at B and C. The torque
magnitudes are TB=5.0kip*ft and TC=1.5kip*ft, respectively. After TB and TC are applied to the
composite shaft, determine:
(a) the maximum shear stress magnitude in aluminum tube (1).[Answer: 3.58 ksi ]
(b) the maximum shear stress magnitude in brass shaft segment (2).[Answer: 3.99 ksi ]
(c) the maximum shear stress magnitude in brass shaft segment (3).[Answer: 5.87 ksi ]
(d) the rotation angle of joint B.[.0321 rad]
(e) the rotation angle of end C.[-0.0112 rad]
Hint: In this problem, shaft (3) can be treated as a normal shaft since it is just a single shaft, not bonded
to anything. On the other hand, Shafts (1) and (2) and are bonded and comprise a composite shaft, so
they deform as a unit.
