An universal coupling is used to connect two mild steel shafts transmitting a torque of 6000 N-m. Assum- ing that the shafts are subjected to torsion only, find the diameter of the shaft and the pin. The allowable shear stresses for the shaft and pin may be taken as 55 MPa and 30 MPa respectively. |Ans. d=85 mm; d = 40 mm|
