The A-36 steel bolt is tightened within a hole so that the reactive torque on the shank AB (with constant radius of 4 mm) as shown in Figure Q3(a) can be expressed by the equation t = kx² Nm/m, where x is in meters. If a torque of T = 40 Nm is applied to the bolt head and Gst = 75 GPa, calculate: (i) the constant k (ii) the amount oftwist in radian the 50-mm length of the shank.

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. (a) If the allowable shear stress in the wire is T allow = 30 MPa, what is the longest permissible length Lmaxof the wire?

A nonprismatic bar ABC with a solid circular cross section is loaded by distributed torques (sec figure).
