- An elastic bar of length L spins with angular velocity ω about an axis, as shown in the figure below. The radial acceleration at a generic point x along the bar is a(x) = ω 2 x. Due to this radial acceleration, the bar stretches along x with displacement function u(x). The displacement u(x) is governed by the following equations: ( d dx (σ(x)) + ρa(x) = 0 PDE σ(x) = E du dx Hooke’s law (1) where σ(x) is the axial stress in the rod, ρ is the mass density, and E is the (constant) Young’s modulus.

- The motor shown operates at constant speed and develops a torque of 100 lb-in during normal operation. Attached to the motor shaft is a gear reducer of ratio 5:1, that is, the reducer output shaft rotates in the same direction as the motor but at one-fifth motor speed. Rotation of the reducer housing is prevented by the "torque arm" pin-connected at each end as shown. The reducer output shaft drives the load through a flexible coupling. Neglecting gravity and friction, what loads are applied to (a) the torque arm, (b) the motor output shaft, and (c) the reducer output shaft?
