Tutorial 3 (Question)

This document contains a summary of Chapter 3 of the BDA10803/BDA10302 Materials Science course. It lists 10 sample questions covering various materials science concepts: 1. Calculating engineering stress on rods of different diameters under tensile loads 2. Calculating engineering stress and strain for a tensile test on a brass sample 3. Determining the percentage reduction in area for an aluminum alloy rod after a tensile test 4. Calculating true and engineering stress and strain based on load and diameter change data 5. Analyzing a creep curve to determine the steady state creep rate and minimum creep rate 6. Identifying which common mechanical tests cannot be performed with a traditional tensile tester 7

CHAPTER THREE : TUTORIAL 2014/2015


1. Calculate the engineering stress in SI
units on a 2.40 cm diameter rod
which is subjected to a load of 1450
kg.
2. Calculate the engineering stress in SI
units on a bar 12 cm long and having
a cross section of 4.00 mm x 8.50
mm which is subjected to a load of
4500 kg.
3. A tensile specimen of cartridge brass
sheet has a cross section of 0.500 in
x 0.015 in and a gage length of 2.00
in. Calculate the engineering strain
which occurred during a test if the
distance between gage markings is
2.45 in. after the test.
4. A 0.505 in diameter rod of an
aluminium alloy is pulled to failure
in a tension test. If the final diameter
of the rod at the fractured surface is
0.435 in, what is the percentage of
reduction in area of the sample due
to the test?
5. A 1.28 cm diameter aluminium alloy
test bar is subjected to a load of
110,000 N. If the diameter of the bar
is 1.24 cm at this load, determine (a)
the engineering stress and strain,
and (b) the true stress and strain

f. Compressive yield strength
9. Which of the following is likely to
scratch glass?

10. A stress is applied to an elastic
material, held for 5 minutes, and
then the applied stress is cut in half.
What happens to the strain when
the stress is reduced?
