Task · part of 2. Six terms, then four questions about metals
2(c). How to work-harden a metal
Required
Describe it. You will then do it in requirement 3(a).
Notes and warnings
Note. Requirements 2(c) and 2(d) describe work-hardening and annealing; requirements 3(a) and 3(b) then do both to the same piece of metal. Doing requirement 2 properly makes requirement 3 much easier to explain afterwards.
