Mechanical Properties of Solids
Physics Solutions from Chapter -1 - Mechanical Properties of Solids
The chapter explains the concepts of elasticity and Hooke’s law by explaining the fundamental definition of stress and strain resulting in a stress-strain curve. It also covers the types of elastic modulus and applications of elasticity in materials.
