Problem 1: Dr. David Griggs has asked you to build an apparatus that simulates elastic then viscous behavior. Draw a picture of the apparatus you built and how it responded from t0 to t1 when stress was applied.

Problem 2: You are on a geology field trip and working in the fossiliferous Boquillas formation. Your field partner shows you a fossil and says "Wow this fossil shows a lot of shear strain!" Draw a diagram showing you what she saw and why it shows significant shear strain
