1. Poly(methyl methacrylate) is often used as a bone cement during artificial joint surgeries. For the attached stress-strain curve of PMMA, what is the Young's modulus at \(40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)(close to body temperature) and \(60^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)? Assuming the sample is incompressible, what is the compressive modulus and the shear modulus at these temperatures?
