The shaft shown consists of a steel tube (1) bonded to a brass core (2). The shear modulus of steel is 11,400 ksi and the shear modulus of brass is 5,200 ksi. A torque is applied at A. The radius of the brass core is 0.5 in. The outer radius of the steel tube is 1 in. d) Assume the allowable shear stress in the brass core is 450 psi. Calculate the maximum torque you could apply to the system in k-in. e) Assume that the maximum angle of twist at the free end is not to exceed 0.05 rad. Calculate the maximum torque you could apply to the system in k-in. f) Based on your answers from parts (c)-(e), what is tha maximum torque (in k-in) you could apply to the system using a factor of safety (FOS) of 2?
