text: Energy transmission with a rotating shaft is very common in engineering practice. Often the torque T applied to the shaft is constant which means that the force F applied is constant. For a specified constant torque, the work done during n revolutions is determined as follows: A force F acting through a moment arm r generates a torque T
  This force acts through a distance s, which is related to the radius r by
  The shaft work is then determined from:
  The power transmitted through the shaft is the shaft work done per unit time, which is expressed as
