A load of P = 4 N is applied to a hex wrench that has lengths a = 42 mm and b = 136 mm. Determine the torque applied to the set screw.

The same torque is applied to three socket extensions. They have the same length and modulus of rigidity but different diameters. Which one will have the smallest polar moment of inertia?

A gear train is composed of four gears, where gears A and B are on the same shaft. Gear A has 60 teeth, gear B has 36 teeth, gear C has 48 teeth, and gear D has 12 teeth. If a torque of 0.917 N·m is applied to gear D, determine the torque at gear A.

The solid circular steel shaft of a screwdriver is subjected to torque T. The shaft has a diameter of 0.453 in. and a length of L = 3.50 in. For a factor of safety of 2.4 and a shearing yield strength of 20 ksi, determine the maximum torque T that can be applied to the shaft.

A dump truck axle with a diameter of 1.61 in. and a length of 38 in. failed while transmitting a power of 505 hp and a torque of 5,260 lb-ft. At what speed was the axle spinning when it broke?

A baby-swing motor provides 0.34 W at 5,500 rpm to a shaft that has a diameter of 2.20 mm and a length of 13.4 mm. Determine the maximum shear stress in the shaft.

A dump truck axle with a diameter of 1.79 in. and a length of 37 in. failed while transmitting a power of 440 hp and a torque of 7,410 lb-ft. At what speed was the axle spinning when it broke?

A dump truck axle with a diameter of 1.682 in. and a length of 38.0 in. failed when the shear stress reached 82 ksi on the outer surface. The shear modulus of the steel is G = 11,900 ksi. Assuming the shaft did not yield prior to failure, determine the angle of twist of the axle when it failed.

A baby-swing motor provides 0.30 W at 6,000 rpm to a shaft that has a diameter of 2.34 mm and a length of 12.0 mm. Determine the maximum shear stress in the shaft.

A dump truck axle with a diameter of 1.614 in. and a length of 37.1 in. failed when the shear stress reached 74 ksi on the outer surface. The shear modulus of the steel is G = 11,500 ksi. Assuming the shaft did not yield prior to failure, determine the angle of twist of the axle when it failed.
