Question: A solid circular has a notch turned into it as shown below. The nominal outside diameter is 2 . 2 5 and the notch

A solid circular has a notch turned into it as shown below. The nominal outside
diameter is 2.25" and the notch diameter needs to be .25" less than the nominal to
accommodate a mechanical element. The radius of the notch needs to be 0.25".
The shaft experiences a tension load of 100,000 lb and torsional load of 10,000 ft-lb.
The shaft is made of steel with a yield strength of 150,000 psi. The shaft design
needs a safety factor of at least 2. Will the current shaft meet the design criteria? If
not, propose a new nominal shaft diameter that meets the design requirements but
is not excessively large. (20 points)
