A hollow power transmission shaft of outer diameter 95 mm and inner diameter 45 mm is 5 m in length. The shaft is required to transmit a power of 225 kW at a speed of 1500 rpm. The shear modulus of the shaft material is 95 GPa. Determine (a) the maximum value of the shear stress induced and (b) the angle of twist along the shaft length measured in degrees.
