Consider a glass-polymer composite test coupon which its fibers oriented at an unknown angle 8 (0 0 60 in 10 increment) with respect to the longitudinal direction (x) and have dimensions as shown in the following figure. This composite test coupon is mounted on a universal testing machine and is subjected to a tensile load F. Two strain gauges (a, b) are installed at the mid-length of the test sample. If at F=1200 N, the two strain gages record the following values: a = -0.00167 mm/mm, & = 0.00336 mm/mm. A. What is the fiber angle of the test coupon? B. What is the change in the right angle of the element A at F=1800 N?
