3. A solid circular shaft is 1.8 m and is made of steel with G = 70 GPa. When rotating at w = 70 rad/s, it transmits 28 kW of power from engine A to generator B. As the design engineer, you are asked to: (a) Determine the shaft's smallest allowable radius if the allowable shear stress is T allow = 80 MPa. (b) Determine the shaft's smallest allowable radius If the allowable angle of twist is allow = 0.1 rad (in other words, the shaft is restricted not to twist more than 0.1 rad).
