Strength Of Materials Miscellaneous
  1. For a circular shaft of diameter d subjected to torque T, the maximum value of the shear stress is
    1. 64T
      πd3
    2. 32T
      πd3
    3. 16T
      πd3
    4. 8T
      πd3
Correct Option: C

Let T = torque; d = diameter of shaft and τ = maximum value of shear stress,

∴ T =
π
d3 × τ or τ =
16T
16πd3
