strength

breaking stress

The maximum stress with stand by

a material before it breaks/snaps.

stiffness

Young Modulus

A measure of stiffness of materials.

= Stress/ Stain

brittle

Brittle means the material breaks

without any plastic deformation

ductile

Undergoes a a lot of plastic

deformation before breaking.

hard

Resistant to scratching

malleable

Will undergo plastic deformation

under small compressive force.

stiff

High Young Modulus. Lot of force

for small amount of extension.

tough

Able to absorb a lot of energy

without breaking.

Stain is the change in length/ the original length. Compressive Strain is when the force applies causes a decrease in length while tensile strain is when force
applied causes increase in length.

Elastic deformation is when a material return to its original length after the force exerted on it, is removed. While plastic deformation is when the material
is permanently exerted after a force is exerted on it, it doesnt return to its original length.

Reached Elastic limit is reached, it is permanently deformed

Yield Point This is the point when a little increase in strain can lead to a huge increase in stress of the material.
X is the breaking tensile stress- After this point, the spring has reached its breaking point and snaps.

Springs constant describes its elasticity. If springs constant is large not elastic, Smaller the number easier to stretch.
Youngs modulus describes stiffness by gradient.

UTS is the maximum stress which it can without hold without snapping.

Fluid something that can flow.
