struggling with this question can someone give advice?
An engine transmits 72 kW of power at 23 rad s 1 to the wheels of a car via a 1.5 m long transmission shaft. What is the minimum diameter (in millimetres) of a solid circular section shaft to carry this load, and what is the angle of twist (in degrees) over the length of the shaft? Assume that the shaft is manufactured from steel with a shear modulus of 79 GPa and a maximum permissible shear stress of 76 MPa. Give your answers to 3 s.f. Minimum diameter: mm O Angle of twist: Check
