The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
A viscoelastic polymer that can be assumed to obey the Boltzmann superposition principle is subjected to the following deformation cycle. At a time, t = 0, a tensile stress of 20 MPa is applied instantaneously and maintained for 100 s. The stress is then removed at a rate of 0.2 MPa s−1 until the polymer is unloaded. If the creep compliance of the material is given by:
J(t) = Jo (1 - exp (-t/to))
Where,
Jo= 3m^2/ GPA
to= 200s
Determine
a) the strain after 100's (before stress is reversed)
b) the residual strain when stress falls to zero.
Answer:
a)-60GPA
b) 0
Explanation:
Given t= 0,
σ = 20Mpa
Change in σ= 0.2Mpas^-1
For creep compliance material,
J(t) = Jo (1 - exp (-t/to))
J(t) = 3 (1 - exp (-0/100))= 3m^2/Gpa
a) t= 100s
E(t)= ΔσJ (t - Jo)
= 0.2 × 3 ( 100 - 200 )
= 0.6 (-100)
= - 60 GPA
Residual strain, σ= 0
E(t)= Jσ (Jo) ∫t (t - Jo) dt
3 × 0 × 200 ∫t (t - Jo) dt
E(t) = 0
Answer:
What is the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is the way in which heat is trapped close to Earth's surface by “greenhouse gases.”
Explanation:
These heat-trapping gases can be thought of as a blanket wrapped around Earth, keeping the planet toastier than it would be without them. Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxides, and water vapor. (Water vapor, which responds physically or chemically to changes in temperature, is called a "feedback.") Scientists have determined that carbon dioxide's warming effect helps stabilize Earth's atmosphere. Remove carbon dioxide, and the terrestrial greenhouse effect would collapse. Without carbon dioxide, Earth's surface would be some 33°C (59°F) cooler.
