Question
Consider shaft AB fixed at point A and free at point B that is subjected to the torque T. The shaft is made of a tightly bonded core and outer shell. The core is made of Material X and the
outer shell is made of Material Y. The polar moments of inertia of the shell and the outer core are equal. If the modulus of rigidity of Material X is higher than that of Material Y, which of the
following is TRUE regarding the angle of twist at end B on each material?
Select one:
O a. The angle of twist of Material X is higher than that of Material Y.
O b. The angle of twist of Material X is lower than that of Material Y.
Oc. The angle of twist of Material X is equal to that of Material Y (both nonzero).
O d. The angle of twist of Material X and of Material Y are both zero.
