Question
(a) Calculate the ratio of the torque transmitted by a solid shaft to the torque transmitted by a hollow shaft by comparing their strength.
(b) Find the angle of twist per metre length of a hollow shaft of $100\text{ mm}$ external and $60\text{ mm}$ internal diameter, if the shear stress is not to exceed $35\text{ MPa}$. Take $C = 85\text{ GPa}$.
