Homework Statement
I am trying to understand how will the radius of a circular beam grow when a torque is applied.
There is a beam with length l, radius r, and a moment M1 applied on it. Its radius will grow with dr.
What is the Young modulus of the beam?
M= 15 N m
r= 0.008 m
l= 0.2 m
dr= 0.00064 m
Homework Equations
Torsional shearing stress
[tex]\tau=\frac{M r}{J}[/tex]
Polar moment of inertia
[tex]J=\frac{1}{2} \pi r^{4}[/tex]
Young modulus definition
[tex]G=\frac{l \tau}{dx}[/tex]
Contraction due to shear
[tex]dl=l - \sqrt{l^{2} - dx^{2}}[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
expressing [tex]dx[/tex] with [tex]G[/tex]
[tex]dx=\frac{l \tau}{G}[/tex]
substituing [tex]dx[/tex] to [tex]dl[/tex]
[tex]dl=l - \sqrt{l^{2} - \frac{l^{2} \tau^{2}}{G^{2}}}[/tex]
substituing [tex]\tau[/tex] to [tex]dl[/tex]
[tex]dl=l - \sqrt{l^{2} - \frac{M^{2} l^{2} r^{2}}{G^{2} J^{2}}}[/tex]
substituing [tex]J[/tex] to [tex]dl[/tex]
[tex]dl=l - \sqrt{- 4 \frac{M^{2} l^{2}}{\pi^{2} G^{2} r^{6}} + l^{2}}[/tex]
dr is square root of dl (multiplying with [tex]\sqrt{m}[/tex] to keep units)
[tex]dr=- \sqrt{dl} \sqrt{m}[/tex]
substituing [tex]dl[/tex] to [tex]dr[/tex]
[tex]dr=- \sqrt{m} \sqrt{l - \sqrt{- 4 \frac{M^{2} l^{2}}{\pi^{2} G^{2} r^{6}} + l^{2}}}[/tex]
solving for G
[tex]G=- 2 \mathbf{\imath} m \sqrt{M^{2}} \sqrt{l^{2}} \sqrt{\frac{1}{\pi^{2} dr^{4} r^{6} - 2 l m \pi^{2} dr^{2} r^{6}}}[/tex]
[tex]G = 9215558692.57753 \frac{N}{m^{2}}[/tex]
