Question: Given a copper ( Cu ) single crystal with a Poissons ratio of 0 . 3 4 , Youngs modulus of 1 1 0 GPa,

Given a copper (Cu) single crystal with a Poissons ratio of 0.34, Youngs modulus of 110 GPa, shear modulus of 48 GPa, and a critical resolved shear stress of 0.59 MPa, where the width of the dislocation varies as 1b,1.5b,2b, and 2.5b (where b is the Burgers vector):
1.Calculate the minimum tensile stress required in the [001] direction of the single crystal to induce slip in the (111)[0-11] slip system. Provide the answer in MPa.
2.If the size of the Burgers vector of a dislocation in the crystal is 2.6, and the Peierls-Nabarro stress is equal to the critical resolved shear stress of the single crystal, calculate the width of the dislocation in nm.
