(see figure) is given below.Stress, (MPa) | , Number of cycles to failure |
|---|---|
500 | 1000 |
400 | 10000 |
300 | 100000 |
200 | 1000000 |

A specimen of this alloy is subjected to multiple stress cycles sequentially in the following order: (i) first 5000 cycles at
MPa followed by (ii) 25000 cycles at
MPa and finally (iii) at
MPa. Assuming that Miner’s law is obeyed, the number of cycles to failure at the final applied stress of 500 MPa is __________.Log in to check the answer
