A Brinell hardness test is performed on a cold-worked aluminum alloy (yield stress = 200 MPa) using a 500 kg load and a standard spherical indenter. The Brinell hardness recorded is approximately 65 kg/mm2. Use GEOMETRICAL METHOD to determine the depth of penetration. Do not use the formular in solving.

2.59 The Brinell hardness test is used to measure the indentation hardness of materials. It involves penetration of an indenter, in the form of a ball of diameter D (mm), under a load P (kg) as shown in Fig. 2.13a. The Brinell hardness number (BHN) is defined as 2P where A (in mm2) is the spherical surface area and d (in mm) is the diameter of...
