The torsional pendulum shown in the figure consists of a horizontal circular disk of a mass M

Question:

The torsional pendulum shown in the figure consists of a horizontal circular disk of a mass M = 60 kg suspended by a vertical steel wire (G = 80 GPa) of a length L = 2 m and diameter d = 4 mm. Calculate the maximum permissible angle of rotation fmax of the disk (that is, the maximum amplitude of torsional vibrations) so that the stresses in the wire do not exceed 100 MPa in tension or 50 MPa in shear. Calculate the maximum permissible angle of rotation fmax of the disk (that is, the maximum amplitude of torsional vibrations) so that the stresses in the wire do not exceed 100 MPa in tension or 50 MPa in shear.
