A bar of Al2O3 that is 0.25 in. thick, 0.5 in. wide, and 9 in. long is tested in a threepoint bending apparatus with the supports located 6 in. apart. The deflection of the center of the bar is measured as a function of the applied load. The data are shown below. Determine the flexural strength and the flexural modulus.
