The pressure needed to break glass varies depending on the type and thickness of the glass. Generally, it takes about 10,000 pounds per square inch (psi) to break tempered glass, but can be significantly less for thinner or annealed glass. For safety glass, such as laminated glass, it can take even higher pressures to break due to its construction with multiple layers.
A glass bottle can break in the freezer due to a sudden change in temperature causing thermal stress on the glass. When liquids inside the bottle freeze, they expand and apply pressure to the walls of the bottle. This stress, combined with the already brittle nature of glass, can lead to the bottle breaking or shattering.
The amount of force needed to break fiberglass will vary depending on the type and thickness of the fiberglass. In general, fiberglass is a strong material and can withstand significant force, but it can be broken with enough impact or pressure.
Yes. You need a trained singer, and a suitable glass though. And even then it's not easy.
Glass thickness is just one factor in determining how much pressure it can withstand. Typically, tempered glass can withstand pressures around 10,000 to 20,000 psi. However, it's best to consult with a glass manufacturer or engineer for specific recommendations based on the intended application and use case.
It is highly unlikely for an opera singer to break glass solely by singing. The frequency at which glass resonates is much higher than what human voices can produce. Mythbusters tested this and concluded that it is not possible for a singer to break glass with their voice.
Yes.
The pressure build up is too much for the thin glass to handle.
There is no exact amount because there are many things that make all glass different. First there are things called flaws. These are things such as scratches, chips, etc. The size and the thickness also determine how much force is needed. The thicker and smaller the pane, the harder it is to break. It also depends on the type of glass. The most common are soda lime, borosilicate, and quartz, which are very different in strength.
Your question is a bit too broad, because it depends on what bone it is. That's not much of an answer, but if it helps any, I know that if you bend your elbow the way opposite that it is suppose to bend, it only takes 5 pounds of pressure to break it.

It all depends... you could fall the wrong way and break a leg ... or you could be stupid and add too much pressure and break it.

one whole pack.
The pressure that glass can withstand varies depending on the type of glass and its thickness. Generally, most common types of glass can withstand pressures of up to 5,000-10,000 pounds per square inch (psi) before breaking. Specialized types of glass, such as tempered or laminated glass, can have higher pressure resistance.
