The tube is attached to a fixed plate at C, and both the rod and the tube are welded to a rigid end plate at A. The rod diameter is d1 = 1.85 in. The outside diameter of the tube is D2 = 2.9 in. and its wall thickness is t2 = 0.160 in. Overall dimensions of the assembly are a = 41 in. and b = 15 in. The allowable shear stresses for the bronze and aluminum materials are 10000 psi and 8000 psi, respectively. Further, the rotation angle of end B must be limited to a magnitude of 4.8°. Based on these constraints, what is the maximum torque TB that can be applied at end B?

Question
The figure shows a cutaway view of an assembly in which a solid bronze [G = 6,500 ksi] rod (1) is fitted inside of an aluminum alloy [G = 4,000 ksi] tube (2). The tube is attached to a fixed plate at C, and both the rod and the tube are welded to a rigid end plate at A. The rod diameter is d1 = 1.85 in. The outside diameter of the tube is D2 = 2.9 in. and its wall thickness is t2 = 0.160 in. Overall dimensions of the assembly are a = 41 in. and b = 15 in. The allowable shear stresses for the bronze and aluminum materials are 10000 psi and 8000 psi, respectively. Further, the rotation angle of end B must be limited to a magnitude of 4.8°. Based on these constraints, what is the maximum torque TB that can be applied at end B?
