Q.

When a machine member is subjected to torsion, the torsional shear stress set up in the member is

  • AZero at both the centroidal axis and outer surface of the member
  • BMaximum at both the centroidal axis and outer surface of the member
  • CZero at the centroidal axis and maximum at the outer surface of the member
  • DMaximum at the centroidal axis and zero at the outer surface of the member
Correct Answer : (C)

Zero at the centroidal axis and maximum at the outer surface of the member
