Two designs for shaft are being considered. Both have an outside diameter of 60 mm and are 500 mm long. One is solid but the other is hallow with an inside diameter of 40 mm, both are made from steel ( G=80 GPa). Compare the torsional shear stress, and the mass of the two designs if they are subjected to a torque of 71 N.m.
