Homework 3:

1. The 150-mm-diameter shaft is supported by a


smooth journal bearing at E and a smooth thrust bearing at F.
Determine the maximum shear stress developed in each
segment of the shaft.
2. A steel tube having an outer diameter of 2.5 in. is
used to transmit 9 hp when turning at 27 rev min.
Determine the inner diameter d of the tube to the nearest
1/8 in. if the allowable shear stress is τallow = 10 ksi.
3. The motor M is connected to the speed reducer C
by the tubular shaft and coupling. If the motor supplies
20 hp and rotates the shaft at a rate of 600 rpm, determine
the minimum inner and outer diameters and of the
shaft if di/do = 0.75. The shaft is made from a material
having an allowable shear stress of τallow = 12 ksi.
4. If the shaft is made of red brass C83400 copper and
is subjected to torques T1 = 20 kN-m and T2 = 50 kN-m,
determine the distance L so that the angle of twist at end
A is zero.
5. The two shafts are made of A992 steel. Each has
a diameter of 1 in., and they are supported by bearings
at A,B, and C, which allow free rotation. If the support at D
is fixed, determine the angle of twist of end B when the
torques are applied to the assembly as shown.
6. The A992 steel shaft has a diameter of 60 mm and is
fixed at its ends A and B. If it is subjected to the torques
shown, determine the absolute maximum shear stress in the
shaft.
