Questions and Answers

What occurs when external forces are removed from an object that returns to its original shape and size?

  • Brittle behavior
  • Ductile behavior
  • Plastic behavior
  • Elastic behavior (correct)

What is the unit of measure for stress?

  • Pascal (correct)
  • Meter
  • Joule
  • Newton

How is elastic modulus calculated?

  • Elastic Modulus = $ rac{Stress}{Strain}$ (correct)
  • Elastic Modulus = $Stress - Strain$
  • Elastic Modulus = $Stress + Strain$
  • Elastic Modulus = $ rac{Strain}{Stress}$

States of Matter

Matter exists as solid, liquid, or gas based on the strength of bonds between molecules.

Solid

A rigid state of matter with strong intermolecular bonds, maintaining a fixed shape and volume.

Liquid

A state of matter with weaker intermolecular bonds than solids, taking the shape of its container while maintaining a fixed volume.

Gas

A state of matter with virtually no intermolecular bonds, filling the entire container and adapting to its volume.
