- A.
Internal Cracks
- B.
Surface & Sub surface Cracks
- C.
Sub surface Cracks & Surface Cracks
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
C. Sub surface Cracks & Surface CracksExplanation
Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT) is a non-destructive testing method used to detect surface and near-surface cracks in ferromagnetic materials. It works by applying a magnetic field to the material and then applying iron particles to the surface. If there are any cracks present, the magnetic field will cause the particles to gather at the crack, making it visible to the inspector.
Dye Penetrant Test (DPT) is another non-destructive testing method used to detect surface cracks in non-porous materials. It involves applying a liquid dye to the surface and allowing it to penetrate any surface cracks. After a certain amount of time, the excess dye is removed, and a developer is applied to draw out the dye from any cracks, making them visible.
Therefore, the correct answer is "Sub surface Cracks & Surface Cracks" because both MPT and DPT can detect cracks on the surface as well as just below the surface of the material.Rate this question:
