What determines the simultaneous movement of muscles and joints during loading?

Which concept allows a deformed body to return to its original size and shape when the deforming stress is removed?

Which quantity is proportional to the force causing a deformation in a body?

What property allows a substance to depart from a straight line on the stress-strain curve at its elastic limit?

Is it possible to change the shape and volume of a solid by applying external forces, a property known as elastic behavior?

The elastic modulus of a material, denoted as 'E', depends upon the elastic material and the nature of deformation.

The stress is inversely proportional to the strain in the generalized Hook's law.

It is not possible to exceed the elastic limit of a substance by applying a sufficiently great stress.

The stress-strain curve of a substance always remains a straight line, even at its elastic limit.
