A solid shaft transmits 250 kW at 100 rpm. If the shear stress is not to exceed 75 N/mm², what should be the diameter of shaft? If this shaft is to be replaced by a hollow shaft whose internal diameter shall be 0.6 times the outer diameter, determine the size and percentage saving in weight,maximum stress being same.
