A meter for measuring torque uses the angle of twist of a shaft to indicate torque. The shaft is to be 150 mm long and made of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. Determine the required diameter of the shaft if it is desired to have a twist of 10.0 deg when a torque of 5.0 N-m is applied to the meter. For the shaft thus designed, compute the torsional shear stress and then compute the resulting design factor for the shaft. Is it satisfactory? If not, what would you do?
