Calif, was pocked by 24 machine-gun bullets, one of which had tattered the leg of his slacks...
...rubber so elastic?" asked Physicist Eugene Guth of Notre Dame. "This is a problem which has baffled scientists for a long time and it was not until recently that an explanation could be offered. . . . A property of rubber, not well known, can easily be demonstrated with a rubber band. Stretch it quickly against the upper lip. It feels warm. Conversely, if it is kept stretched for a little while, then released, it feels cool. This generation of heat by the band . . . proves that the relation between the heat of the rubber and its compression is similar to that...
...mechanism of rubber elasticity. Physicist Guth said: "The molecules of rubber are like long flexible strings. . . . If one throws a flexible string into the air, it will land in a curved, coiled-up form, rather than a straight form. Similarly, in an unstretched rubber band, the rubber molecules will be coiled up. Stretching the rubber actually stretches its long flexible molecules from the curved to the straight form...
