Question 130
XE-FNAT2 marksNeeds review
A viscoelastic polymer is subjected to a constant strain of 0.3. The behavior of the polymer follows Maxwell model of linear viscoelasticity. Elastic modulus of the polymer is 5 MPa and the relaxation time is 200 days. The stress in the polymer after 100 days from the initial application of the strain is ______________ MPa (rounded off to two decimal places).
