Elasticity is the property of a material that enables it to return to its original shape and size after the removal of an external force. It is characterized by the ability to undergo deformation under stress and recover fully upon ...
Moduli are measures of a material’s response to applied forces. Key types include Young’s modulus which measures tensile strength bulk modulus for volume change and shear modulus which assesses shear strength. Each modulus quantifies how a material deforms under specific ...
A law in physics is a statement or mathematical equation describing a consistent and universal principle of nature. It is based on experimental observations and remains valid under specific conditions. Laws explain natural phenomena like motion energy or gravity and ...
Strain is the measure of deformation in a material due to applied stress. It is defined as the ratio of change in dimensions to the original dimensions. Strain is a dimensionless quantity and is classified into tensile strain compressive strain ...
