Question: 5 - ( 1 0 pts ) The figure shows an automobile wheel with a single - ended wrench. The distance between A and B

5-(10 pts) The figure shows an automobile wheel with a single-ended wrench. The distance between A and B is 12 in . and the handle diameter is .625 in . The handle is made of forged steel with Sut=60,000. The average tightening torque is 1200in-lb. Use reliability of 50%. The outside diameter of the socket part of the wrench (the part that fits over the lug nut) is 1.25 and the fillet radius between the socket section and the solid section (3 in. section) is .25 inch. Use Kfm=1.0(stress concentration factor applied to the mean stress).
a) Estimate the value of the fatigue stress concentration factors (bending and torsion) at the fillet.
b) Determine the number of cycles to failure, use 106 as infinte life.
