Answer:
The material will not fail
Step-by-step explanation:
A rod subjected under cyclic stress will fail if the cyclic stress it is subjected to is a constant maximum value that is above the fatigue limit of the rod. but in this problem the Rod is subjected to a cyclic stress that ranges from 200 MPa(maximum stress) and 20 MPa ( minimum stress). this simply means that at all times the Rod will not experience maximum stress of 200 MPa and its Fatigue limit is also set at ~100 MPa
attached is the diagram showing the cyclic stress the rod is subjected to
