← HistoryWhich consequence occurs when repeated bending stress exceeds bamboo's fatigue limit during crossbow construction?
A)Increased string oscillation frequency
B)Accelerated creep deformation occurs
C)Premature limb tensile failure✓
D)Reduced arrow flight stabilization
💡 Explanation
Premature limb tensile failure arises because work hardening weakens bonds, therefore concentrated mechanical stress during bending accumulates and exceeds ultimate tensile strength long before expected, rather than simple elastic relaxation or increased flight wobble.
