  • question_answer
    A circular tube of mean radius 8 cm and thickness 0.04 cm is melted up and recast into a solid rod of the same length. The ratio of the torsional rigidities of the circular tube and the solid rod is

    A) \[\frac{{{(8.02)}^{4}}-{{(7.98)}^{4}}}{{{(0.8)}^{4}}}\]

    B) \[\frac{{{(8.02)}^{2}}-{{(7.98)}^{2}}}{{{(0.8)}^{2}}}\]

    C) \[\frac{{{(0.8)}^{2}}}{{{(8.02)}^{4}}-{{(7.98)}^{4}}}\]

    D) \[\frac{{{(0.8)}^{2}}}{{{(8.02)}^{3}}-{{(7.98)}^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] \[{{C}_{1}}=\frac{\pi \eta (r_{2}^{4}-r_{1}^{4})}{2\ell },{{C}_{2}}=\frac{\pi \eta {{r}^{4}}}{2\ell }\] Initial volume = Final volume \[\therefore \,\,\,\pi [r_{2}^{2}-r_{1}^{2}]\ell \rho =\pi {{r}^{2}}\ell \rho \] \[\Rightarrow \,\,{{r}^{2}}=r_{2}^{2}-r_{1}^{2}\Rightarrow {{r}^{2}}=({{r}_{2}}+{{r}_{1}})({{r}_{2}}-{{r}_{1}})\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,{{r}^{2}}=(8.02+7.98)(8.02-7.98)\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,{{r}^{2}}=16\times 0.04=0.64cm\Rightarrow r=0.8cm\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\frac{{{C}_{1}}}{{{C}_{2}}}=\frac{r_{2}^{4}-r_{1}^{4}}{{{r}^{4}}}=\frac{{{[8.02]}^{4}}-{{[7.98]}^{4}}}{{{[0.8]}^{4}}}\]
