Front

What is the breaking point of an object?

Back

The amount an object deforms and cannot return to its original shape after the force is removed.

Front

What happens to materials when force is applied?

Back

The deformation INCREASES for all materials but each material has a DIFFERENT rate of deformation.

Front

What is the elastic limit of a material?

Back

The maximum amount of deformation a material can undergo before it deforms permanently.

Front

What occurs when an object reaches its elastic limit?

Back

It deforms permanently.

Front

What is Kinetic Energy?

Back

The energy of Motion.

Front

Define deformation in the context of materials.

Back

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

Front

What is a contact force?

Back

A force that acts at the point of contact between two objects.

Front

What is the difference between elastic and plastic deformation?

Back

Elastic deformation is reversible, while plastic deformation is permanent.

Front

What is the relationship between force and deformation?

Back

As force increases, deformation typically increases, but the rate can vary by material.

Front

What is the breaking point of a material?

Back

The point at which a material can no longer withstand an applied force and breaks.
