A flywheel of weight 24kN is mounted on a solid shaft, 125mm in
diameter, midway between the bearings, which are 1.5m apart. If the
maximum direct stress is to be limited to 85MPa and the shaft
transmits 100kW at 503r/min, calculate the maximum end thrust that
could be applied to the shaft. What would be the maximum shear
stress in the shaft? [113.6kN; 56.91MPa]
