A hollow steel [G = 12,000 ksi] shaft with an outside diameter of 3.50 in. will be subjected to a pure torque of T = 4670 lb-ft. Determine the maximum inside diameter d that can be used if the shear stress must not exceed 8,000 psi and the angle of twist must not exceed 3⁰ in an 8-ft length of shaft.
