The engine of the helicopter is delivering 600 hp to the rotor shaft when the blade is rotating at 1200 rpm. Determine to the nearest 1/8 in the diameter of the shaft is the allowable shear stress is 10.5 ksi and the vibration limits the angle of twist of the shaft to 0.05 rad. The shaft is 2 ft long and made from steel.

The engine of the helicopter is delivering 600 hp to the rotor
shaft when the blade is rotating at 1200 rpm. Determine to the
nearest 1/8 in the diameter of the shaft is the allowable shear
stress is 10.5 ksi and the vibration limits the angle of twist of
the shaft to 0.05 rad. The shaft is 2 ft long and made from
steel.
