Question 1

Question
Ductility
Answer
  • the state of being strong enough to withstand adverse conditions or rough handling
  • when a solid material stretches under tensile stress
  • the extent to which it resists deformation in response to an applied force

Question 2

Question
Brittleness
Answer
  • breaks without significant plastic deformation, absorb relatively little energy prior to fracture, even those of high strength
  • substance's ability to deform under pressure
  • the extent to which it resists deformation in response to an applied force

Question 3

Question
Toughness
Answer
  • the state of being strong enough to withstand adverse conditions or rough handling
  • the capacity of something to last or to withstand wear and tear
  • substance's ability to deform under pressure

Question 4

Question
Stiffness
Answer
  • the quality or condition of being hard
  • the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape
  • the extent to which it resists deformation in response to an applied force

Question 5

Question
Resilience
Answer
  • the capacity of something to last or to withstand wear and tear
