Question

What is the rate of bending carried out for heavy wires?

(a) 65 bending’s

(b) 7 bending’s

(c) 80 bending’s

(d) 50 bending’s

I had been asked this question in my homework.

This interesting question is from Aircraft Materials in section Testing Aircraft Materials of Aerospace Materials & Processes

Answer 1

The correct option is (b) 7 bending’s

Easiest explanation: For heavy wire, the rate of bending in the reverse bend test is 7 bends per minute. For small wire, the rate of bending in the experiment is fifty bends per minute. This is the specification given.
