The stressstrain behavior of ceramics is usually determined
     The stress-strain behavior of ceramics is usually determined using:  a tensile test  a compression test  a bending test  Ceramics have a disposition to fail by cracking because of:  The difficulty for slip to occur (low to no plasticity)  The higher density of flaws  Their high melting points  a and b  In ceramics, strength:  Is reliably the same in all samples  Varies depending on sample size  Varies depending on strain  Is higher in compression than in tension  b and d  Glasses:  Are noncrystalline ceramics  Deform by viscous flow  Are often transparent  All of the above  The degree of polymerization is a measure of:  The weight of one chain of polymer  The weight of one repeat unit  The number of repeat units in a polymer chain  The weight average molecular weight and number average molecular weight are  different measures of the molecular weight of the polymer  the same number, just a different name  the molecular weights of the repeat unit  When applying a stress to a viscoelastic polymer  The strain increases instantaneously to a value equal to the stress divided by the Young\'s modulus  The strain doesn\'t change  The strain progressively increases and keeps increasing as long as the stress is being applied 
  
  Solution
solutions:
1. Compression test
2. a and b
3. b and d
4. all of the above
5. c
6. a
7. a (visco elasticity is a type of deformation exhibiting the mechanical charactersistics of viscous flow and elastic deformation)
