A solid steel shaft, 90 mm in diameter is coupled in series to a hollow shaft withan external diameter of 100 mm and internal diameter of 90 mm. Calculate thetorsional stiffness of 1 mm length of each of these shafts if they are usedseparately and compare this with the torsional stiffness of a 1 m length of thecompound shaft consisting of a 0.5 m length of each of the shafts mentionedabove. (G = 80 GPa)
