Question 1

What is the formula for shear stress in a solid circular shaft?

  • Ο„ = T*r/J
  • Ο„ = J*T*r
  • Ο„ = T^2/r

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember 'T', 'r', and the importance of 'J' in the formula.

Question 2

True or False: Higher torque increases the angle of twist in a shaft.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what happens when more force is applied.
