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.
For this reason, Hooke's law is extensively used in all branches of science and engineering, and is the foundation of many disciplines such as seismology, molecular mechanics and acoustics. It is also the fundamental principle behind the spring scale, the manometer, and the balance wheel of the mechanical clock.
