What is the main difference between elasticity and plasticity?
Elasticity involves permanent deformation, plasticity does not
Elasticity is the tendency to remain in a new shape, plasticity is not
Elasticity returns to original shape, plasticity remains in new shape
Elasticity requires more force to change shape, plasticity requires less
