QB2 SHEAR AND TORSION An aircraft engine develops 150kW at 1500rpm. The engine output shaft is steel which fails when the shear stress is 160N/mm². a) If the output shaft is solid, determine a suitable diameter to give a safety factor of three. b) If the shaft is hollow with an external diameter of 50mm, calculate a suitable internal diameter to give a safety factor of three. Also, determine the percentage saving in weight. [8marks] (a)3 marks b) 5marks]
