A circular solid shaft of span L = 5 m is fixed at one end and free at the other end. A twisting moment T = 100 kN - m is applied at the free end. The torsional rigidity Gj is 5000 kNm2 /red. Fllowing statements are made for this shaft.
I. The maximum rotation is 0.01 rad
II. The torsional strain energy is 1 kN-m With reference to the above statements,
which of the following applies?
-
- Both statements are true
- Statement I is true but II is false
- Statement II is true but I is false
- Both the statements are false
Correct Option: B
= | ||||
J | L |
∴ θ = | CJ |
= | = 0.01 rad | 50000 × (1000)3 |
Torsional strain energy, U = (1/2) .T. θ
= (1/2) × (100 × 106)(0.01) = 0.5 kNm
Thus statement I is true, II is false
