Question: Two solid steel shafts are joined by couplings that are forged integrally with the shaft as shown. The diameter of the shaft and bolt circle

Two solid steel shafts are joined by couplings that are forged integrally with the shaft as shown. The diameter
of the shaft and bolt circle are do =5in. and DBC=10 in., the flange has a thickness tFL=0.5 in. and
there are eight 78-in.-diameter bolts. If the allowable shear stress in the shaft is 7,800 psi, (a) determine the
full torque capacity of the shafts based on shear stress and with that value provide (in the box below) the value of the the bearing stress on the flange caused by each bolt. 5 significant figures. Estimated time: 10 minutes.
