A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 55 MPa (50 ksi ). If the plate is exposed to a tensile stress of 200 MPa (29,000 psi) during service use, determine the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture. Assume a value of 1.0 for Y.
