Solving Beamy - Three-Point Bending Test

A three-point bending test was performed on an aluminum oxide specimen having a circular cross section of radius 5.0  mm(0.20 in.); the specimen fractured at a load of 3000  N(675 lbf) when the distance between the support points was 40 mm(1.6 in.). Another test is to be performed on a specimen of this same material, but one that has a square cross section of 15  mm (0.6 in.) length | Numerade
