A torsion bar of constant inner radius and length is applied with constant torque. What will happen for the angular displacement if outer radius of torsion bar is increased?

A torsion bar of constant inner radius and length is applied with constant torque. What will happen for the angular displacement if outer radius of torsion bar is increased? Correct Answer Decreases

Relation between angular displacement and radius of the torsion bar can be explained using an expressioɸ = 2LT/πG(R04 – Ri4) keeping all other factors constant, angular displacement and outer radius become inverse portioned to each other.

Statement (I): The term ‘encoder’ is used for a device that provides an analog output as a result of angular or linear displacement. Statement (II): An increment encoder detects changes in angular or linear displacement from some datum position where as an absolute encoder gives the actual angular or linear position.
