3. Gas Turbine Engine Turbine Blade Figure 1 shows a gas turbine blade
made from a ferromagnetic steel alloy. The figure also shows the blade
contains a crack open to the specimen surface of length 30mm and of
depth 1 mm and it is not visible to the naked eye. The crack is
orientated at ninety degrees to the blade surface. The wall thickness
of the blade where the crack is, is 8 mm. State whether liquid penetrant,
magnetic particle inspection, eddy current, radiography and ultrasonics
can determine (or not determine) the presence, length, depth, position
