A homogeneous shaft PQR with fixed supports at both ends is subjected to a torsional moment T at point Q, as shown in the figure. The polar moments of inertia of the portions PQ and QR of the shaft with circular cross-sections are $J_1$ and $J_2$, respectively. The torsional moment reactions at the supports P and R are $T_P$ and $T_R$, respectively.
