A. 11

B. 12

C. 10

D. 22

Answer & Explanation

Given:
6 discs on the driving shaft and 5 discs on the driven shaft
i.e. n1=6, n2=5.
Thus,
Number of contact surface = n1+n2-1 = 6+5-1=10

Thus correct option is: C.

A. The twisting moment is greater than the resisting moment

B. The twisting moment is equal to the resisting moment

C. The twisting moment is less than the resisting moment
