1. The four rigid gears, loaded as shown in the figure, are attached to a 2.31-in.

-diameter steel
shaft. Compute the angle of rotation of gear A relative to gear D if TA = 482 lbft, TB = 836
lbft, and TC = 1,176 lbft. Use G = 12,021,345 psi for the shaft.
2. The four rigid gears, loaded as shown in the figure, are attached to a 2.46-in.-diameter steel
shaft. Determine the maximum shear stress in the shaft if TA = 511 lbft, TB = 942 lbft, and TC
= 1,199 lbft. Use G = 12,051,250 psi for the shaft.
3. The compound shaft consists of bronze and steel segments, both having 120-mm diameters.
If the torque T causes a maximum shear stress of 100 MPa in the bronze segment, determine
the magnitude of T (in Nm). Use G = 83 GPa for steel and G = 35 GPa for bronze.
4. The compound shaft consists of bronze and steel segments, both having 143-mm diameters.
If the torque T causes a maximum shear stress of 92.15 MPa in the bronze segment,
determine the angle of rotation of the free end. (in degrees). Use G = 83.28 GPa for steel and
G = 34.61 GPa for bronze.
