A three-point bend test was performed on an alumina specimen having a circular cross section of radius 5.0 mm. If the specimen fractured at 3000 N, when the distance between the support points was 40 mm, calculate the modulus of rupture for alumina. Another test is to be performed on a specimen of the same batch alumina, but one that has a square cross section 15mm x 15mm Estimate the load at fracture if the support point separation is maintained at 40mm.

Question

please answer i) and ii)

i) A three-point bend test was performed on an alumina specimen having a
circular cross section of radius 5.0 mm. If the specimen fractured at 3000 N,
when the distance between the support points was 40 mm, calculate the
modulus of rupture for alumina.
ii) Another test is to be performed on a specimen of the same batch alumina, but
one that has a square cross section 15mm x 15mm Estimate the load at fracture
if the support point separation is maintained at 40mm.
