A shaft is made of bronze at length AB and steel at length BC fixed at both ends. It is subjected  to a concentrated torsional moment at the junction, The steel segment is 1 meter long. Assume  that the Bronze has a diameter of 75mm, G = 35 GPa and τ = 60 MPa whilst the steel has a  diameter of 50mm, G = 80 GPa, and τ = 80 MPa. What is the reaction at the left end if the maximum torque is applied to the saft, in kN.
