2. We need to design a stepped shaft to fit between a 1" diameter and 1/2" diameter holes. The shaft is to transmit 100W of power at 10 rpm. 3" of the 1" diameter shaft is in torsion, and 2" of the 0.5" diameter shaft is in torsion. If the shaft is made of brass,

a) What is the minimum radius for a fillet between the shaft sections?

b) What is the angle of deflection?

c) What are the maximum stresses and strains?

2. a) Given the pipe below find the torsion about the centerline of member AB (AB lies in the x-z plane). The round members from A to B, and B to C are solid with a diameter of 1/8in. Assume that the material has the properties; E = 50 Mpsi and G = 20Mpsi. (marks 25)

b) If the torsion is found to be 100 lb then what is the angle of twist for AB? (marks 25)
