Yes agree with Hitesh. Question is not related to particular shaft.

@All.

The Question is asked for machine member not particular for shaft.

Satish said: 9 years ago

Yes, option C should be the correct answer.

Abhii said: 9 years ago

According to me, option C is the correct one. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Suraj said: 10 years ago

How can option B be correct?

Rajeswari said: 1 decade ago

Stress should be zero at the centroid axis as per the formula.

Jaikishan giri said: 1 decade ago

Maximum at outer surface of the member.

Gaurav said: 1 decade ago

Yes even I doubt it that if due to torsion shear stress is zero at centroidal axis or not.
