A section of commercial steel shafting 2.0 m long between bearings carries a 1000 N pulley at its midpoint, as shown in Figure. The pulley is keyed to the shaft and receives 30 kW at 150 rev/min, which is transmitted to a flexible coupling just outside the right bearing. The belt drive is horizontal and the sum of the belt tensions is 8000 N. Assume k = kh =1.5, og = 55 MPa, G = 80 GPa. Calculate the necessary shaft diameter ?( the left side and the right side should be the same)

A magnesium-alloy wire of diameter d = 4mm and length L rotates inside a flexible tube in order to open or close a switch from a remote location (see figure). A torque Tis applied manually (either clockwise or counterclockwise) at end 5, thus twisting the wire inside the tube. At the other end A, the rotation of the wire operates a handle that opens or closes the switch. A torque T0 = 0.2 N · m is required to operate the switch. The torsional stiffness of the tube, combined with friction between the tube and the wire, induces a distributed torque of constant intensity t = 0.04N m/m (torque per unit distance) acting along the entire length of the wire.
