Temperature & Times for Cooking Chicken. When cooking chicken, make sure to cook thoroughly, so there is no pink and the flesh is opaque all the way through. If you are using a meat thermometer, you can use it to determine when the meat is done; chicken should be cooked to 165 degrees.
Hooke's law. When studying springs and elasticity, the 17áµÊ° century physicist Robert Hooke noticed that the stress vs strain curve for many materials has a linear region. Within certain limits, the force required to stretch an elastic object such as a metal spring is directly proportional to the extension of the spring.
Slide 4 of 14. Notes: Generally speaking, Hookes Law is an approximation to the way all elastic forces behave when strains are very small. This slide talks about elastic limit for tensile strains in a wire, but the same principle works for any kind of stress. A paper clip, for example, springs back into its original shape unless it is bent beyond an elastic limit where the stain becomes permanent.
