Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A solid shaft is subjected to a torque of 150 Nm. Calculate the shear stress if the shaft diameter is 60 mm.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Pay close attention to units for diameter.

Question 2

A helical spring with 10 active coils and a mean diameter of 30 cm compresses under an axial load of 500 N. Determine the deflection given the wire diameter is 5 mm and shear modulus is 80 GPa.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Make sure to calculate D and d in consistent units.
