A brittle material has an ultimate strength σu = 590 MPa. A member made of this material is subjected to its design load. At the critical point in the member, the nonzero stress components are σxx = 160 MPa and σxy = 60 MPa. Determine the factor of safety used in the design. Use the maximum principal stress criterion.
