The flexural modulus of alumina is 45 106 psi and its flexural strength is 46,000 psi.

Question:

The flexural modulus of alumina is 45 × 106 psi and its flexural strength is 46,000 psi. A bar of alumina 0.3 in. thick, 1.0 in. wide, and 10 in. long is placed on supports 7 in. apart. Determine the amount of deflection at the moment the bar breaks, assuming that no plastic deformation occurs?
