Put the iron where there are no oxygen, like space, the moon, the ISS, or put it underground compact dirt will kee all oxygen away, make sure where you bury it that it is completely dry.

You have a few choices:

-- Take it out of Earth's atmosphere.

-- Put it in a tank where you pumped all the air out of it.
   You can put whatever you want back in the tank, just
   as long as there's no oxygen in there.

-- Besides oxygen, rusting also needs water.  The humidity
   (water vapor) in the air is enough to do it.  So if you can
    keep the air totally, totally dry around the iron, then the
    oxygen alone won't make it rust.

-- All these choices do the same thing:  Make sure that
   oxygen and water vapor can't reach the iron.  The easy
   way to do that is to paint or spray something onto the
   surface of the iron that keeps the air away from it.

Slav-nsk [51]

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

A 55.0-g aluminum block initially at 27.5 degree C absorbs 725 J of heat. What is the final temperature of the aluminum? Express
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Final temperature of the aluminum = 41.8 °C

Explanation:

We have the equation for energy

      E = mcΔT

Here m = 55 g = 0.055 kg

ΔT = T - 27.5

Specific heat capacity of aluminum = 921.096 J/kg.K

E = 725 J

Substituting

     E = mcΔT

     725 = 0.055 x 921.096 x (T - 27.5)

     T - 27.5 = 14.31

     T = 41.81 ° C = 41.8 °C

Final temperature of the aluminum = 41.8 °C

an object of mass 8 kg is whriled round in a vertical circle of radius 2m with a constant speed of 6m/s .Then the maximum and mi
algol13

Answer:

Maximum Tension=224N

Minimum tension= 64N

Explanation:

Given

mass =8 kg

constant speed = 6m/s .

g=10m/s^2

Maximum Tension= [(mv^2/ r) + (mg)]

Minimum tension= [(mv^2/ r) - (mg)]

Then substitute the values,

Maximum Tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 +(8×9.8)] = 224N

Minimum tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 -(8×9.8)]

=64N

Hence, Minimum tension and maximum Tension are =64N and 2224N respectively
