A ceramic specimen having a circular cross section of radius 2.7mm is subjected to a load of 900N. The distance between the support point is 43mm. Another test is to be performed on a specimen of this same material, but one that has a square cross section of 10mm on each edge. At what load (in N) would you expect the specimen to fracture if the support point separation is 38mm?
