A thermodynamic analysis of these two experiments can tell us something about the molecular structure of rubber. Rearrangement of the equation: D G = D H - TD S gives: TD S = D H - D G The warming ...

[Ben Krasnow] noticed, and he built a rubber band cooled refrigerator to demonstrate the concept. The idea of stretching a rubber band to make it hotter, then releasing it to make it cooler ...

However, rubber bands deteriorate and dry-rot over time, and stretching the band around the bracket and exposing the band to any heat may speed up the process. When the rubber band starts to dry ...

Static stretching before exercise has become such ... Muscles don’t work like rubber bands that perform better when manually stretched out first. They’re complex structures with neurological ...
