Two shafts will have equal strength, if
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
D
Two shafts will have equal strength if the twisting moment of both the shafts is the same.
Twisting moment determines the ability of a shaft to resist the applied torque without failure. It is given by the formula:
T = τ × Zp
Where:
T = Twisting moment
τ = Shear stress
Zp = Polar section modulus
Equal twisting moments imply that the shafts will experience the same level of stress and deformation under the applied torque, ensuring they have equal strength.
Therefore, Option D is the correct answer.
