4 A hollow bronze shaft with an outside

diameter of 80 mm and a wall thickness of 5
mm is subjected to a torque of T = 620 N-m and
an axial load of P = 9,500 N, as shown in Figure
P15.3/4.
(a) Determine the principal stresses and the
maximum shear stress at point H on the
surface of the shaft.
(b) Show the stresses of part (a) and their
directions on an appropriate sketch. FIGURE P15.3/4
