Diagram shows a shaft A B C containing two gears at B and C which is connected to a motor A where the torques of 20 Newton meter and T subscript c is applied on B and C and the distance A B is 1400 millimeter and B C is 1000 millimeter. The x axis is taken along the axis of the gears and the y axis is taken along the motor support at A and perpendicular to the x axis.

From equilibrium, the internal torques T1 and T2 were expressed in terms of the unknown external torque TC as:

T1=TC-20  N-mT2=TC

Substitute these expressions into the equation for the rotation angle at C:

ϕC=(TC-20  N-m)L1J1G1+TCL2J2G2

    =1=0.01745 rad

The rotation angle at C is specified to be 1...

... and the rotation angle must be converted to radians for this calculation.
