The permissible angle of twist=1.3 degree in length of 5.8 m and the shear stress is not exceed 60 MPa. Take Modulus of Rigidity G=90 MPa.

Noet

*Value of maximum Torque must satisfy the condition for strength and stiffness i.e always consider the lowest value of Torque so that shaft will not fail in strength and stiffness condition * part 1 part 2

Data: Maximum Torque $(T_{max}) = \ ?$

Diameter of shaft (d) = 270 mm and $r = \frac{d}{2} = 135 \ mm$

Angle of twist $\theta = 1.3° = 1.3 \times \frac{\pi}{180}$ (radian)

Length (L) = 5.8 m = 5800 mm.

Shear stress $\zeta = 60 \ Mpa = …
