Which of the following is most elastic? (1) Rubber (2) Wet clay (3) Steel (4) Plastic

1 Answer

Answer :

(3) Steel Explanation: In physics, elasticity is a physical property of materials which return to their original shape after the stress that caused their deformation is no longer applied. For very small deformations, most elastic materials, such as springs, exhibit linear elasticity. This means that they are characterized by a linear relationship between stress and strain (the relative amount of deformation).
