The solid rod BC has a diameter of 30 mm and is made of an aluminum for which the allowable shearing stress is 25 MPa. Rod AB is hollow and has an outer diameter of 25 mm; it is made of a brass for which the allowable shearing stress is 50 MPa. Determine (a) the largest inner diameter of rod AB for which the factor of safety is the same for each rod, (b) the largest torque that can be applied at A.
