The delay in regaining the original shape after the removal of stress is called elastic fatigue.

The material which practically does not show elastic after effect is

The delay in returning to its original shape by a substance after removing the applied force is called _____.

What is elastic after effect? Mention its application.

A typical stress-strain curve for a wire of a metal wire is shown below:
If the point D and E are very close, the material is:

Permanent set in a material is produced by subjecting it to

Permanent set refers to:

Two blocks of masses and are connected by a metal wire going over a smooth pulley as shown in the figure. The breaking stress of the metal is . If the minimum radius of the wire used is so that it is not to break, find the value of . Take, .

Highest value of stress for which Hooke’s law is applicable for a given material is called

Stress vs strain for the elastic tissue of the aorta, the large tube (vessel) carrying blood from the heart, will be: [Stress is proportional to square of the strain for the elastic tissue of the aorta]

Now, match the terms in Column I with corresponding terms in Column II.
Column I | Column II | ||
A | Yield point | p | |
B | Breaking point | q | |
C | Ultimate strength point | r | |
D | Proportionally limit point | s |
