5-47 A round shaft supports a transverse load of $F = 15\ 000$ lbf and carries a torque of
$T = 7$ kip $\cdot$ in, as shown in the figure. The shaft does not rotate. The shaft is machined
from AISI 4140 steel, quenched and tempered at 400°F. Document the location of the
critical stress element and how you determined that element to be critical. Do not
assume transverse shear stress is negligible without proving it. Then,
(a) determine the minimum factor of safety based on yielding according to the maximum-
shear-stress theory.
(b) determine the minimum factor of safety based on yielding according to the
distortion-energy theory.
