No. The tensile strength comes from the grain inside the metal and the ingredients used to make a certain metal. Lengths are determined by tensile strength and material advised to be used for that specific use.

What is the tensile strength of .375 bolt?

Tensile strength is a material propery, it does not depend on size. Look at a material chart to find its yield and tensile strenghts. Then use the stress equation, Stress = Force / Area to determine if your .375 bolt can handle the force on it. If your bolt is in shear, you need to find Shear strenghts.


Is a magnets strength dependent on size or shape?

A magnet's strength is primarily dependent on the material it is made of and how it is magnetized. Size and shape can influence the distribution of the magnetic field and how it interacts with other magnets or objects, but they do not directly determine the strength of the magnet.


Give you a example of tensile strength?

Take a piece of any material, say a steel rod, or a piece of timber dowel and you grip it at both ends and try to pull it until it breaks. When you do this, you are putting a tensile load on the material. It is said to be 'in tension'. If the material had a cross sectional AREA of say, 1 Square Inch, and the Tensile Load on it was say, 50,000 Pound,then the Tensile load would be 50,000 PSI (pound per square inch). If the material broke apart under that exact load, then we say it has a TENSILE STRENGTH of 50,000 lb/ square inch. Engineers measure tensile strength in either Pound/Squ.inch. OR Pascal. A Pascal (metric system) is Newton per Square Metre. Steel cables used on bridges have a Tensile Load on them at all times. Engineers calculate the cross sectional area of steel cable needed to be safe , and never break apart. Engineers need to know the Tensile Strength of Steel to be able to choose what size cable to use,so that it is quite SAFE and will not break when in Tension. They use safety factors such as 5 (typical) This means they calculate the cross sectional area of a cable which is going to be 5 times as strong as the Tensile Strength of the steel they are using. They then know that it will never break. The Tesile strength at which a material breaks is called its Ultimate Tensile Strength. Engineers never allow the tension in steel to exceed about 1/5th ofthe Ultimate tensile strength of the steel. Modern Steel bars used in steel structures, has an ultimate tensile strength of approx. 80,000 lb/Squ.inch


What does length dependent mean?

Length dependent refers to a characteristic or behavior that varies based on the length of a particular object or system. In various fields, such as materials science or engineering, it often describes how properties like stress, strain, or electrical resistance change with the size of the material. For example, in mechanics, the tensile strength of a material may depend on its length, affecting how it responds to forces applied along its length.


What does chain din 766 means?

It is a specific type, size and tensile strength of chain.


What is the tensile strength of a can?

conductor that can withstand tension force before failing i.e., zebra conductor can withstand 13290 kg. You can quote tensile strength only as [force / unit of cross-sectional area]. The above example is useful only if it a specific material (it looks like a trade-name for something) made in only one size.


What is usually the tensile strength of carpenter's nail?

The tensile strength of a typical carpenter's nail can vary based on its material and size, but it generally ranges from 60,000 to 120,000 psi (pounds per square inch). Common steel nails typically fall within this range, while specialized nails may have different properties. Factors such as coating and design can also influence tensile strength. However, for most general carpentry applications, this range is sufficient to ensure durability and reliability.


Is concentration size dependent?

For a homogeneous material the concentration is independent from the size.


Matter being drawn out into wire?

Copper can be drawn into wire because its elastic strength is lower than its tensile strength. If it were the other way around the copper would be brittle and break from being drawn. To draw wire from copper it is usually annealed first (heated to reduce its elasticity) then drawn into rods through a thimble, then progressively drawn though smaller and smaller dies to reduce its diameter to the preferred gauge or size. As the copper is drawn through the dies it heats up from friction and actually needs to be cooled to prevent it from breaking, as this annealing actually reduces the tensile strength of the copper as well. *elastic strength is the strength of material that resists permanent deformation of the material. Tensile strength is the resistance to the material being pulled apart.


How Do you calculate the Ultimate Tensile Strength of a Material?

You take coupon sample, usually and approved shape and size, and pull it to failure with a tensile test machine such as those made by Instron. It has a load cell that measures the load it takes to break the sample. Then you simply divide by the sample cross section area to get the tensile strength


Why hardness is a intensive?

Because the hardness is not dependent to the size of a material sample.


Is spider silk stronger than diamonds?

Yes, spider silk can be considered stronger than diamonds when comparing tensile strength, which measures how much force a material can withstand when being pulled. While diamonds are extremely hard and have high compressive strength, spider silk has a higher tensile strength-to-weight ratio, making it incredibly strong for its size. This unique property allows spider silk to stretch and absorb energy, which is not a characteristic of diamonds. However, it’s important to note that they are strong in different contexts and for different purposes.
