In the figure, shaft A made of AISI 1010 hot-rolled steel, is welded to a fixed support and is subjected to loading by equal and opposite Forces F via shaft B. Stress concentration factors K₁ (1.7) and Kts (1.6) are induced by the 3mm fillet. Notch sensitivities are q₁=0.9 and qts=1. The length of shaft A from the fixed support to the connection at shaft B is 1m. The load F cycles from 0.5 to 2kN and a static load P is 100N. For shaft A, find the factor of safety (for infinite life) using the modified Goodman fatigue failure criterion. 3 mm fillet Shaft A 20 mm 25 mm Shaft B 25 mmarrow_forwardPlease sovle this for me and please don't use aiarrow_forward
