A solid phosphor bronze shaft 60 mm in diameter is rotating at 800 rpm and transmitting power. It is subjected to torsion only. An electrical resistance strain gauge mounted on the surface of the shaft, gives the strain reading as 3.98 × 10−4 . If the modulus of elasticity for bronze is 105 GN/m2 and Poisson’s ratio 0.3. The power transmitted by the shaft will be (Bending effect may be neglected) (Gage is mounted at 45o to the shaft axis).

A horizontal shaft, L m long, is rigidly fixed at both the ends. At section C and D, torques 3 kNm (ccw) and 5 kNm (ccw) looking from the side A are applied. What are the fixing couples TA and TB?
Detailed Solution for Test: Torsion Level - 3 - Question 4

There are 3 portions AC, CD and DB, each of length L/3

Torque at A, say TA

Torque between CD = TA − 3kNm

Torque between DB = TA − 3 − 5

= TA − 8 kNm

Angular twist θAB = 0, since both the ends are fixed

θAC + θCD + θDB = 0

or TA + TA − 3 + TA − 8 = 0

3TA = 11

TA = 11/3 = 3.667 kNm

TA − 3 = 0.667 kNm

TA − 8 = −4.333 kNm = TB

Torque distribution is shown in figure

In a torsion test, the specimen is a hollow shaft with 50 mm external diameter and 30 mm internal diameter. An applied torque of 1.6 kNm is found to produce an angular twist of 0.40° measured on a length of 0.2 m of the shaft. Young’s modulus of elasticity obtained from the elastic test has been found to be 200 GPa.

Then the Poisson’s ratio will be
