A steel axle is made from tubes AB and CD and a solid section BC. It is supported on smooth bearings that allow it to rotate freely. If ends 4 and D are subjected to 85 Nm torques, determine the angle of twist of end B with respect to C. The tubes have an outer diameter of 30 mm and inner diameter of 20 mm. The solid section has a diameter of 40 mm. Steel has a shear modulus of elasticity G = 75 GPa. Provide your final answer in degrees.

A steel axle is made from tubes AB and CD and a solid section BC. It is supported on smooth
bearings that allow it to rotate freely. If ends 4 and D are subjected to 85 Nm torques, determine
the angle of twist of end B with respect to C. The tubes have an outer diameter of 30 mm and
inner diameter of 20 mm. The solid section has a diameter of 40 mm. Steel has a shear modulus
of elasticity G = 75 GPa. Provide your final answer in degrees.
