2.17 In using this leg curl machine the exertion of the legs results in a torque M 120 lb-ft on the shaft that connects to cord disk. The cord disk has a radius R = 8 in. Determine the resulting tensile stress in the 0.125 in. diameter steel cable within the cord that wraps around the cord disk. Assume that frictionless bearings allow the shaft-cord disk assembly to rotate freely in place. Prob. 2.17 (Appendix A4)

2.17 In using this leg curl machine the exertion of the legs results in a torque
M = 120 lb-ft on the shaft that connects to cord disk. The cord disk has a radius
R = 8 in. Determine the resulting tensile stress in the 0.125 in. diameter steel
cable within the cord that wraps around the cord disk. Assume that frictionless
bearings allow the shaft-cord disk assembly to rotate freely in place.
