Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a metal with a yield strength of 250 MPa, determine whether it can withstand a stress of 300 MPa without suffering plastic deformation. Explain your reasoning.
💡 Hint: Remember how yield strength defines the limits of elastic behavior.
If a material has a tensile test that shows ductility, what would you expect its stress-strain curve to resemble, and why?
💡 Hint: Consider how temperature or materials can change this behavior in applications.
