Chapter 12.7, Problem 124P
The box of negligible size is sliding down along a curved path defined by the parabola y = 0.4x2. When it is at A (xA =2 m, yA = 1.6 m), the speed is v = 8 m/s and the increase in speed is dv/dt = 4 m/s2. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the box at this instant.

A viscoelastic column is made of a material with a creep compliance of
D(t)= 0.75+0.5log10t+0.18(log10t)^2 GPA^-1
for t in s. If a constant compressive stress of σ0 = –100 MPa is applied at t = 0, how long will it take (= t1/2) for the height of the column to decrease to ½ its original value? Note: You will obtain multiple answers for this problem! One makes sense physically and one does not.
