Total questions: 13
Worksheet time: 7mins
Plastic Deformation is when a material...
becomes temporarily deformed
loses elastic potential energy
becomes permanently deformed
gains kinetic energy
When an elastic band is stretched and contracted it forms a graph like this.
What does the area between the two lines (region X) represent?
The work done needed to stretch the rubber band
The heat energy produced in the rubber band
The energy used to contract the rubber band
The spring constant of the rubber band
A material is stretched and contracted by adding then removing a mass load from it. The graph is shown on the left.
What 2 things does this graph tell us about the material?
The material does not obey Hooke's Law
The material experiences plastic deformation when a load is applied
The material experiences elastic deformation when a load is applied
The material does obey Hooke's Law
Elastic Deformation is when a material...
becomes temporarily deformed
loses elastic potential energy
becomes permanently deformed
gains kinetic energy
During plastic deformation energy is not conserved, which is why we see a permanent extension in the material.
Which answer provides the best explanation for this?
The energy is 'lost' because the material temporarily changes state to a liquid then back again
The energy is 'lost' as heat to the surroundings
The energy 'lost' is being used to vibrate the atoms in their positions
The energy 'lost' is being used to reposition the atoms
The equation for stress is...
σ=AF
σ=FA
σ=xΔx
σ=ΔxA
The gradient of the linear portion of a stress-strain graph is...
The spring constant of the material
The force per unit area
The elastic strain energy per unit volume
The Young's Modulus
The equation for strain is...
ϵ=AF

ϵ=xΔx
ϵ=ΔxA
