Problem 2 (Torsion) [3.25]
Under normal operating conditions a motor exerts a torque
of magnitude TF = 150 N.m at F. The shafts are made of a
steel for which the allowable shearing stress is 75 MPa.
Knowing that for the gears rd = 200 mm and rg = 75 mm,
determine the required diameter of (a) shaft CDE, (b) shaft
FGH

Problem 3 (pure bending) [4.3]
Using an allowable stress of 155 MPa, determine the largest
bending moment M that can be applied to the wide-flange
beam shown. Neglect the effect of fillets.

Problem 4:
Using an allowable stress of 155 MPa, determine the largest
bending moment M that can be applied to the wide-flange
beam shown. Neglect the effect of fillets.

Problem 5: (Pure Bending) [4.16]
Knowing that for the extruded beam shown the allowable
stress is 84 MPa in tension and 110 MPa in compression,
determine the largest couple M that can be applied
