An object is deformed and will go back to its original dimensions.
Elastic deformation
1 of 11
The object will remain deformed.
Plastic deformation
2 of 11
Difficulty to indent or scratch a material.
Hardness
3 of 11
Small deformation when subjected to large force.
Stiffness
4 of 11
Able to absorb the energy from impacts and shocks without breaking.
Toughness
5 of 11
Will shatter or crack when subjected to dynamic shocks or impacts.
Brittleness
6 of 11
Amount of force an object can take before breaking.
Strength
7 of 11
Can be hammered out into thin sheets.
Malleability
8 of 11
Can be drawn into wires.
Ductility
9 of 11
Represents stiffness.
Spring constant
10 of 11
Up to a given load, the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied.
