Question: A solid steel bar of circular cross - section has a diameter d = 5 0 m m , length L = 1 . 5

A solid steel bar of circular cross-section has a diameter d=50mm, length L=1.5m and shear
modulus of elasticity G=80GPa. The bar is subjected to torques T acting at the ends as shown
in the figure below.
If the torques have a magnitude T=350Nm,
(i) What is the maximum shear stress max in the bar?
(ii) What is the angle of twist between the ends?
If the allowable shear stress is 40MPa and the allowable angle of twist is 2 degrees,
(iii) What is the maximum permissible torque?
A solid steel bar of circular cross - section has
