As we know the strength of the shaft is measured by polar modulus.
Polor modulus = j/r.
Here solid shaft is given so for the solid shaft.
π/16 (d) ^3.
Now as db =100.
And da=50.
So.
π/16 (db) ^3 divide by pi/16 (da) ^3.
After a cancellation we get.
(db/da) ^3.
= (100/50) ^3.
= (2) ^3.
=8.

Here torque formula is used to compare their strength. As we know that torque is directly proportional to d^3 of the shaft.

M/sigma = z, and z = i/y.
= pi * d^4/64/d/2,
= pi * d^3/32,
So, z1/z2 = d1^3/d2^3.
= (50/100)^3
= (1/2)^3 = 1/8.
= pi * d^4/64/d/2,
= pi * d^3/32,
So, z1/z2 = d1^3/d2^3.
= (50/100)^3
= (1/2)^3 = 1/8.

Yes, torque solid shaft formula is used to get the answer.

@Yatheesh,
It's of the shaft, So option B is right.
