12. A structural component is fabricated from an alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of It has been determined that
this component fails at a stress of 300 MPa when the maximum length of a surface crack is 0.95 mm. What is the maximum allowable surface crack length (in mm) without fracture for this same component exposed to a stress of 300 MPa and made from another alloy with a plane-strain fracture toughness of 35 MPa m (31.9 ksi in. ). 40 MPa m (36.4 ksi in. ). 45 MPa m. 57.5 MPa m

Answer:
The time required is 10.078 hours or 605 min
Explanation:
The formula to apply here is ;
K=(d²-d²₀ )/t
where t is time in hours
d is grain diameter to be achieved after heating in mm
d₀ is the grain diameter before heating in mm
Given
d=5.5 × 10^-2 mm
d₀=2.4 × 10^-2 mm
t₁= 500 min = 500/60 =25/3 hrs
t₂=?
n=2.2
First find K
K=(d²-d²₀ )/t₁
K={ (5.1 × 10^-2 mm)²-(2.4 × 10−2 mm)² }/ 25/3
K=(0.051²-0.024²) ÷25/2
K=0.000243 mm²/h
Re-arrange equation for K ,to get the equation for d as;
d=√(d₀²+ Kt) where now t=t₂
