Answer:
Final length of the rod = 13.90 in
Explanation:
Cross Sectional Area of the polythene rod, A = 0.04 in²
Original length of the polythene rod, l = 10 inches
Tensile modulus for the polymer, E = 25,000 psi
Viscosity,
Weight = 358 lbs - f
time, t = 1 hr = 3600 sec
Stress is given by:
Based on Maxwell's equation, the strain is given by:
Strain = Extension/(original Length)
0.39022 = Extension/10
Extension = 0.39022 * 10
Extension = 3.9022 in
Extension = Final length - Original length
3.9022 = Final length - 10
Final length = 10 + 3.9022
Final length = 13.9022 in
Final length = 13.90 in
