Front

What factors affect how much an object deforms when a force is applied?

Back

The type of material, the shape, and the thickness of the object.

Front

Define Elastic Limit.

Back

The maximum amount of force or deformation an object can withstand before it deforms permanently.

Front

What is transferred during a collision?

Back

Energy.

Front

What is deformation?

Back

The change in shape or size of an object due to applied forces.

Front

What is the relationship between force and deformation?

Back

The greater the force applied, the greater the deformation, up to the elastic limit.

Front

What is the breaking point of a material?

Back

The point at which a material can no longer withstand applied forces and fails.

What is the difference between elastic and plastic deformation?

Back

Elastic deformation is reversible, while plastic deformation is permanent.
