Question: ( 1 2 0 pts . ) The 3 D stress state of a point in a steel machine component is physically determined using piezoelectric

(120 pts.) The 3D stress state of a point in a steel machine component is physically determined using piezoelectric strain gauges, Wheatstone Bridge, and generalized Hooke's Law to be as follows:
=-119.4MPa,yy=103.5MPa,z=-87.6MPa,
xy=-5.92MPa,yz=-7.96MPa,xz=11.94MPa
Determine
(a)(60-pt) all the 3 principal stresses
(b)(30-pt) the orientation of the maximum principal stress by giving the corresponding unit normal vector
(c)-pt) the magnitude and direction of max
(d)(10-pt) the direction along which Mode I fracture is most likely to occur subject to either known or unknown stress concentration?
