What is the Maximum Shear Stress in a Solid Circular Shaft?

Calculation of Maximum Shear Stress:

The maximum shear stress in a solid circular shaft with a 40 mm diameter transmitting a torque of 3200 N-m is found using the formula for shear stress in shafts.

The calculation results in a value of 800/π N/m^2, which corresponds to answer option (b) 800/π.
