?
density =
M (mass) x V (volume of material)
1 of 28
hookes law states
that extension is proportional to force
2 of 28
hookes law equation
F= K x changeL K=spring constaant L=extention
3 of 28
what is the elastic limit
if a spring is stretched beyond the limit its doesn't regain its original length when the force is removed
4 of 28
what does the area under a force - extension graph represent
the energy stored in a stretched spring
5 of 28
energy stored =
1/2 F changeL
6 of 28
define elastic deformation
this is the ability to of a solid material to regain its shape after being deformed by forces
7 of 28
define plastic deformation
an object that has been stretched beyond its elastic limit and permanetly stretched.
8 of 28
define limit of proportionality
the point up to which the extension is proportional to the fore applied
9 of 28
what does tensile mean
deformation which stretches an object
10 of 28
whats does compressive mean
deformation that compresses an object
11 of 28
describe brittle
a brittle material is one that snaps suddenly without an noticeable yield
12 of 28
examples of brittle materials
glass, concrete
13 of 28
do brittle materials obey hookes law
for a while then there would be a sudden failure
14 of 28
what is ductile
a material which can be drawn out into a wire
15 of 28
example of a ductile material
copper
16 of 28
do ductile materials obey hookes law
yes because they behave elastically then suddenly acts plastic
17 of 28
what is the yield point
the point where that material starts to stretch without any extra load. a place where a large amount of plastic deformation takes place.
18 of 28
what is ultimate tensile stress (UTS)
the maximum stress the material can withstand
19 of 28
what is the breaking stress
the stress on the material at the point at which it breaks apart
20 of 28
what is strain energy
the work done to stretch an object
21 of 28
young modulus equation
= stress / strain
22 of 28
stress =
F / A force / cross sectional area
23 of 28
strain =
change L / L extension / length
24 of 28
the gradient of a stress strain graph is
young modulus
25 of 28
is energy conserved when stretching materials
yes, always
26 of 28
what does the area under a stress - strain graph show
the strain energy (energy stored)
27 of 28
is the stress - strain graph a straight line
yes, providing that hookes law is obeyed
