Question: A shaft ABC consisting of two solid circular segments is subjected to torques T 1 and T 2 acting in opposite directions, as shown in

A shaft ABC consisting of two solid circular segments is subjected to torques T1 and T2 acting in opposite directions, as shown in the figure. The larger segment of the shaft has diameter d1=55mm. and length L1=760mm.; the smaller segment has diameter d2=44 mm . and length L2=500mm. Shear modulus of the shaft material, G=76GPa, and the torques are T1=2260N.m. and T2=900N.m. Draw the Torque diagram. Calculate;
(a) the maximum shear stress max in the shaft,
(b) the angle of twist C (in degrees) at end C
