A specimen of a 4340-steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 54.8 MPa sqrt(m) (50 ksi sqrt(in.)) is exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa (150,000 psi). Will this specimen experience fracture if the largest surface crack is 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) long

critical stress = 1382.67 MPa

Explanation:

given data

plane strain fracture toughness = 54.8 MP

length of surface creak = 0.5 mm

we take here

parameter Y = 1.0

solution

we apply critical stress formula that is

critical stress =   .............................1

here K is design stress plane strain fracture toughness and a is length of surface creak so put all these value in equation 1

critical stress  =      

solve it we get

critical stress  = 1382.67 MPa

As exposed stress 1030 MPa is less than critical stress 1382 MPa

so that fracture will not be occur here

x+2 because it just doubles hon so the pattern can actually tell you the expression.

so for example,

if x=2 then 2+2 is 4

if x=4 then 4+4 is 8

and so on and so forth.

i really hope that this makes sense and you out in a way hon: )

i mean i gues
