The image above represents length of crack on surface. To calculate length of crack on surface, one essential parameter is needed and this parameter is Length of Initial Crack (c).
The formula for calculating length of crack on surface:
a =Â c/2
Where:
a = Length of Crack on Surface
c = Length of Initial Crack
Let’s solve an example;
Find the length of crack on surface when the length of initial crack is 12.
This implies that;
c = Length of Initial Crack = 12
That is, a = c/2
a =Â 12/2
a = 6
Therefore, the length of crack on surface is 6 m.

Unlock solutions for every math, physics, engineering, and chemistry problem with step-by-step clarity. No internet required. Just knowledge at your fingertips, anytime, anywhere.
This implies that;
a = Length of Crack on Surface = 10
That is, c = 2a
c = 2(10)
c = 20
Therefore, the length of initial crack is 20.
