A circular specimen of MgO is loaded in three-point bending. Calculate the minimum possible radius of the specimen without fracture, given that: the applied load is 5560 N the flexural strength is 105 MPa the separation between the supports is 45 mm Input your answer as X. XX mm, but without the unit of mm.

Acompressor compresses a gas, a pump compresses a liquid. for a given pressure ratio, why does it take more work to compress a gas in a compressor than a liquid in a pump? a)- for a given pressure ratio the average specific volume for a gas is much higher than the average specific volume for a liquid. b)- there is no difference. the only difference is the amount of heat generated (not work) c)- for a given pressure ratio the average volurge for a gas is much higher than the average volume for a liquid. d)-there is no difference
