Question

A solid constant-diameter circular shaft is subjected to torques TA = 420 lb- ft, TB = 1,040 lb- ft, TC = 850 lb-ft, and
TD = 230 lb-ft, acting in the directions shown in the figure. The bearings shown allow the shaft to turn freely.

(a) Plot a torque diagram showing the internal torque in segments (1), (2), and (3) of the shaft. Use the right-hand rule. 

(b) If the allowable shear stress in the shaft is 6,000 psi, what is the minimum acceptable diameter for the shaft?
