Question

A brass specimen of the circular cross-section is fractured at 151 kN force and the final length of the specimen at fracture is 49 mm. The fracture strength of the specimen is found to be 74 kN/mm2. The percentage of elongation of the specimen is 42 %.

Determine the following 

(i) Diameter of the specimen

ii) Initial length of the specimen

iii) Stress under an elastic load of 16 kN

iv) Young's Modulus if the elongation is 1.6 mm at 16 kN 

(v) Final diameter if the percentage of reduction in area is 20 %

solve: 

Initial Cross-sectional Area (in mm2) =

The Diameter of the Specimen (in mm) =

Initial Length of the Specimen (in mm) =

 

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1 Initial Cross-sectional Area and diameter of the specimen

We know,

fracture strength=fracture loadcross sectional areaA=15174A=2.04 mm2

Hence, the initial cross-sectional area is 2.04 mm2 

 

Also,

A=π4×d2d=4×2.04πd=1.61 mm

Hence, the diameter of the specimen is 1.61 mm

Step 2 Initial length of the specimen

We have,

% elongation=final length-initial lengthinitial length×10042=49-LiLi×100Li=34.51 mm

 

Hence, the initial length of the specimen is 34.51 mm

Step 3 Stress under an elastic load of 16 kN

The stress is given by,

σ=PAσ=162.04σ=7.84 kN/m2

 

Hence, the stress under an elastic load of 16 kN is 7.84 kN/m
