What reading level is Applied Mechanics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


2. Kirkaldy had already called attention to the fact that the tensile strength of a specimen is very much affected by its shape, and that, in a specimen where the shape is such that the length of that part which has the smallest cross-section is practically zero (as is the case when a groove is cut around the specimen), the breaking-strength is greater than it is when this portion is long ; the excess being in some cases as much as 33 per cent.
Commander Beardslee undertook, by actually testing
... speci- mens whose smallest areas varied in length, to determine what must be the least length of that part of the specimen whose cross-section area is smallest, in order that the tensile strength may not be greater than with a long specimen. The conclusion reached was, that no test-piece should be less than one-half inch in diameter, and that the length should never be less than four diameters ; while a length of five or six diameters is necessary with soft and ductile metal in order to insure correct results.
