00:01 Part a of this problem asks about the significant scatter in the fractured strengths of ceramic materials.
00:11 Now, what does scatter mean? in ceramics, it means that there's a gaussian distribution between the strength of the material and the number of fracture occurrences at each strength.
00:55 So a ceramic can break at different strengths with a varying likelihood.
01:03 This is because ceramics are a brittle material and fracture because of defects in the material.
01:12 And these defects in the material can form a crack.
01:20 And when this crack comes under load, it can fracture the ceramic...
