Chapter 5 Problem 5-88

Question

A rod is made from two segments: AB is steel and BC is brass. It is fixed at its ends and subjected to a torque of \(T=680 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}\). If the steel portion has a diameter of 30 mm, determine the required diameter of the brass portion so the reactions at the walls will be the same. \(G_{\mathrm{st}}=75 \ \mathrm{GPa}\), \(G_{\mathrm{br}}=39 \ \mathrm{GPa}\).

Solution

Step 1 of 4)

The first step in solving 5 problem number 88 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A rod is made from two segments: AB is steel and BC is brass. It is fixed at its ends and subjected to a torque of \(T=680 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}\). If the steel portion has a diameter of 30 mm, determine the required diameter of the brass portion so the reactions at the walls will be the same. \(G_{\mathrm{st}}=75 \ \mathrm{GPa}\), \(G_{\mathrm{br}}=39 \ \mathrm{GPa}\).
From the textbook chapter Torsion you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
