Example 5
A solid shaft and a hollow shaft are made of the same material and are of the same weight and length. The hollow shaft has internal and external radii c1 and c2 respectively. Denoting by n the ratio c1c2, show that the ratio TsTh of the torque Ts in the solid shaft to the torque Th in the hollow shaft is (a)(1-n2)0.51+n2 if the maximum shearing stress is the same in each shaft, (b)1-n21+n2 if the angle of twist is the same for each shaft.
