Solution
Correct Answer:
Undergoes permanent deformation
- Elastic Range: Within the elastic limit, a material returns to its original dimensions after the deforming force is removed.
- Elastic Limit: This is the maximum stress that can be applied to a material without causing permanent (plastic) deformation.
- Plastic Region: If stress exceeds this limit, atomic planes start sliding past one another permanently.
- Result: Even after removing the load, the material retains a 'set' or permanent strain. It has undergone permanent deformation.
This easy difficulty physics question is from the chapter properties of solids and liquids, covering the topic of conceptual (elastic limit). It appeared in the 2025 exam.
