A solid steel bar of circular cross section has diameter d 5 2.5 in., L 5 60 in., and shear modulus of elasticity G 5 11.5 3 106 psi. The bar is subjected to torques T 5 300 lb-ft at the ends. Calculate the angle of twist between the ends. What is the maxi- mum shear stress and the shear stress at a distance rA 5 1.0 in. measured from the center of the bar

A) θ = 4.9 x 10^(-3) rad

B) τ_max = 1.173 ksi

C) τ_a = 4.786 ksi

Explanation:

We are given;

diameter; d = 2.5 inches = 0.2083 ft

Length; L = 60 inches = 5 ft

Torque; T = 300 lb.ft

Shear modulus; G = 11.5 x 10^(6) psi = 11.5 x 144 x 10^(6) lb/ft² = 1.656 x 10^(9) lb/ft²

A) Now, formula to determine angle of twist is given as;

T/I_p = Gθ/L

Where I_p is polar moment of inertia

θ is angle of twist.

Now I_p = πd⁴/32 = π(0.2083)⁴/32 = 1.85 x 10^(-4) ft⁴

Thus, making θ the subject, we have;

TL/GI_p = θ

θ = (300 x 5)/(1.656 x 10^(9) x 1.85 x 10^(-4))

θ = 4.9 x 10^(-3) rad

B) Maximum shear stress is given by the formula ;

τ_max = (Gθ/L)(d/2)

From earlier, (Gθ/L) = T/I_p

Thus, (Gθ/L) = 300/1.85 x 10^(-4) = 1621621.6216

Thus,

τ_max = 1621621.6216 x (0.2083/2)

τ_max = 168891.89 lbf/ft²

Converting to ksi = 168891.89/144000 ksi = 1.173 ksi

C) Shear stress at radial distance is given as;

τ_a = (Gθ/L)•r_a

r_a is given as 5.1 inches = 0.425m

τ_a = 1621621.6216 x 0.425 = 689189.189 lbf/ft²

Converting to ksi = 689189.189/144000 ksi = 4.786 ksi

weather forecasts are done by collecting data about the current state of the atmosphere mainly the temperature, humidity and wind and using meteorology, to determine the atmosphere that evolves over time. the h and l mean the high and low pressure. the red strip is a warm front. the blue strip is a cold front. the blue and red strip is a stationary front. the purple strip is a occluded front.
