3.10 A rotating thin steel cylinder is replaced by a rotating thin aluminium cylinder
of the same mass, length and wall thickness. The stress due to rotation in
the aluminium cylinder is to be 25 % of that in the steel cylinder. Calculate the
allowable speed of the aluminium cylinder if the steel cylinder rotates at 600
r/min (relative density of steel = 7,8; relative density of aluminium = 2,9)
The force that provides the stress depends on the tangential speed of rotation at the walls of the cylinder:
