What does the polar moment of inertia J represent in the torsion equation?

• The resistance of a cross-section to torsional deformation.

• The resistance of a material to bending.

• The capacity of a shaft to transmit torque.

• The ability of a material to absorb energy.

In the torsion formula (τ = Tr/J), what does (r) represent?

• The radial distance from the shaft's center axis.

• The radius of the shaft.

• The modulus of rigidity.

• The length of the shaft.

In advanced case studies, how is the safety of a torsion shaft verified?

• By comparing the calculated shear stress to the material's yield strength

• By ensuring the diameter is adequate

• By calculating the maximum torque

• By checking the length of the shaft

How does the polar moment of inertia (J) of a shaft affect its response to torsion?

• A larger J reduces the shear stress and angle of twist for a given torque.

• A larger J increases the shear stress and angle of twist for a given torque.

• J does not influence the shaft's response to torsion.

• A larger J only affects the angle of twist, not the shear stress.

• Rotational speed increases

• Rotational speed decreases

• No effect on speed
