A circular steel tube of length L = 1.5 m is loaded in torsion by torques T (see figure). (a) If the inner radius of the tube is r, = 41 mm and the measured angle of twist between the ends is 0.5°, what is the shear strain y, (in radians) at the inner surface? (Enter the magnitude.) rad (b) If the maximum allowable shear strain is 0.00026 rad and the angle of twist is to be kept at 0.45° by adjusting the torque T, what is the maximum permissible outer radius (r,)may (in mm)? mm Enter a number.
