PROBLEM 3.23
3.23 Under normal operating condi-
tions a motor exerts a torque of
magnitude TF at F. The shafts
are made of a steel for which
the allowable shearing stress is
82 MPa and have diameters of
dCDE=24 mm and dFGH = 20
mm. Knowing that rp = 165
mm and rg114 mm, deter-
mine the largest torque TF
which may be exerted at F.
