MecMovies 4.0 : M6.6: Twisting of a Compound Torsion Member

scene 7 of 7

Diagram shows a shaft with brass segment A B of length 1800 millimeters which is connected to aluminum segment B C of length 800 millimeter using a flange at B and a torque T of 50 Newton meter is applied on C. The x axis is taken along the axis of the cylinders and the y axis is taken along the rigid support at A and perpendicular to the x axis.

If the diameter of segment $(2)$ is less than $27.2 mm$ , segment $(2)$ will twist too much, which will cause $C$ to rotate more than $3^{°}$ relative to support $A$ .
