Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

The torqueT=2.5 kN.m

Length of the tubeL=4 m

Wall thickness of the vertical sidet1=6 mm=0.006 m

Thickness of the horizontal sidet2=5 mm=0.005 m = tmin

Because mean line area of the cross section:

Ao=L4-t2×L1+L3-L1-t1×L2-t2           =25-5×44+88-44-6×50-5           =2590 mm2=0.00259 m2
