Derivation of the Double Angle Formulas
The Double Angle Formulas can be derived from Sum of Two Angles listed below:
$\sin (A + B) = \sin A \, \cos B + \cos A \, \sin B$ → Equation (1)
$\cos (A + B) = \cos A \, \cos B - \sin A \, \sin B$ → Equation (2)
$\tan (A + B) = \dfrac{\tan A + \tan B}{1 - \tan A \, \tan B}$ → Equation (3)

Solution to Problem 317 Torsion
Problem 317
A hollow bronze shaft of 3 in. outer diameter and 2 in. inner diameter is slipped over a solid steel shaft 2 in. in diameter and of the same length as the hollow shaft. The two shafts are then fastened rigidly together at their ends. For bronze, G = 6 × 106 psi, and for steel, G = 12 × 106 psi. What torque can be applied to the composite shaft without exceeding a shearing stress of 8000 psi in the bronze or 12 ksi in the steel?

316 Permissible Torque That Can Be Applied to a Compound Shaft
Problem 316
A compound shaft consisting of a steel segment and an aluminum segment is acted upon by two torques as shown in Fig. P-316. Determine the maximum permissible value of T subject to the following conditions: τst ≤ 83 MPa, τal ≤ 55 MPa, and the angle of rotation of the free end is limited to 6°. For steel, G = 83 GPa and for aluminum, G = 28 GPa.
315 Power Applied and Removed at Shaft Gears
Problem 315
A 5-m steel shaft rotating at 2 Hz has 70 kW applied at a gear that is 2 m from the left end where 20 kW are removed. At the right end, 30 kW are removed and another 20 kW leaves the shaft at 1.5 m from the right end. (a) Find the uniform shaft diameter so that the shearing stress will not exceed 60 MPa. (b) If a uniform shaft diameter of 100 mm is specified, determine the angle by which one end of the shaft lags behind the other end. Use G = 83 GPa.
