a. Calculate the torsional constant J for the cross section of the rectangular torsion member shown in Figure P6.36. Use Eq. (m) of Section 6.6 or Eq. 6.64 with Table 6.1.

b. Calculate the shear stresses σxz and σyz at the indicated points in the cross section. The member is subjected to a torque T = 100 N • m.
