4 (a) A steel shaft is supported at bearing A and B 750mm apart. A spur gear having PCD 400mm is located 150mm to the right of LH bearing and a pinion with PCD 120mm is mounted 350mm to the left of RH bearing. The gear is drive by the pinion located vertically below, while the pinion transmits power to another gear horizontally to the right. Using allowable shear stress 60MPa, determine the diameter of the shaft. The shaft transmitting 10KW at 200 rpm. Shock and Fatigue factor in bending and torsion are 2.0 and 1.5 respectively.
