Answer:
fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 (= 22.5)
Explanation:
If the maximum strength at tip Is greater than theoretical fracture strength value then fracture will occur and if the maximum strength is lower than theoretical fracture strength then no fracture will occur.
![\sigma_m = 2\sigma_o [\frac{a}{\rho_t}]^{1/2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csigma_m%20%3D%202%5Csigma_o%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7B%5Crho_t%7D%5D%5E%7B1%2F2%7D)

= 15 GPa
fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 = 22.5
