Question

Q.2
Define the angle of twist and angle of shear? Deduce the expression for the
couple required to twist a uniform cylinder.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

• Angle of twist occurs when we apply torsional load. Let's have example of cylinder, which is fixed on one end, while 2nd end is free. When load will be applied, twist angle will be produced at fixed end.

• Angle of shear is different as compared to angle of twist. As it happens when Shearing force will be applied at testing bar ends.
