(n1/n2)/(t2/t1).

Because velocity V = r*omega.

v = D/2*omega.

So v = D/2*2*pi*n.

D*n = v.

Now D is inversely proportional to n. So more R.P.M less diameter.

If diameter of shaft increases means speed will decreases, on other hand, Torque will increases.

Power = Inertia*Angular velocity.

If angular velocity is increased, I would decrease to maintain same power.

The speed(rpm) is inversely proportional to Diameter of shaft.

we know
P = (2 * 3.14 * N * T)/60 and also for shaft T = F * radius.

From this, we can observe the answer.

Speed is inversely proportional to the torque.

So, as the speed of 2nd shaft is more than the 1st shaft so its diameter will be than that of 1st with speed less than 2nd.

When power is constant then torque is inversely proportional to speed so when speed increase torque is decreased. Again torque is directly proportional to radius from eqn T = f * r. So less torque has less diameter also.

Speed is inversly proportional to diameter so shaft of greater daimeter should have less speed than that of smaller one.

Lager the diameter less speed and vice versa.

Hihow can we calculate stress and strain?

If you know the voltage of motor and rpm and torque. Using this formula if the shaft is made up of ms steel and it is 380gpa. Please tell me.
