AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) all the above. A hacksaw blade can break due to several reasons: 1) Applying too much pressure on the blade can cause it to break due to excessive stress. 2) If the blade becomes loose in the frame, it can vibrate excessively and eventually break. 3) Cutting at a rate that is too fast can also lead to the blade breaking due to the high stresses involved. Therefore, all the given options - excessive pressure, a loose blade, and a high cutting rate - can cause a hacksaw blade to break.
