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?

For what distance x will the angle of twist at points B and C be a maximum? What is the corresponding angle of twist 0max?
Two sections of steel drill pipe, joined by bolted flange plates at Ä are being tested to assess the adequacy of both the pipes.

Both pipes have the same inner diameter = 200 mm. Pipe AB has thickness tAB=15 mm, while pipe BC has thickness TBC= 12 mm. Find the maximum shear stress and maximum twist of the pipe and their locations along the pipe. Assume G = 75 GPa.
