A hollow shaft of 100 mm external diameter and 50 mm internal diameter transmits 60 kW at a mean speed of 60 rev/min. If the maximum torque is 1.5 times the mean torque, determine: (i) the minimum and maximum shear stresses produced in the shaft at the mean speed; (7 Marks) (ii) the maximum angle of twist per metre length. (3 Marks) Take the Modulus of Rigidity of the shaft to be G = 80 GPa.
