Elasticity – The Physics Hypertextbook
Elasticity is the ability of materials to return to their original shape after a deforming (stretching, compressing, shearing, bending) force has been removed.
Elasticity - Summary – The Physics Hypertextbook
Elasticity is the ability of materials to return to their original shape after a deforming (stretching, compressing, shearing, bending) force has been removed.
Springs – The Physics Hypertextbook
Elasticity is the property of materials to return to their original size and shape after being deformed (that is, after the deforming force has been released).
Special Symbols - The Physics Hypertextbook
Symbols representing physical quantities, units, mathematical operations and relationships, astronomical bodies, constellations, and the Greek alphabet.
Elasticity - Practice – The Physics Hypertextbook
Elasticity is the ability of materials to return to their original shape after a deforming (stretching, compressing, shearing, bending) force has been removed.
Elasticity - Resources – The Physics Hypertextbook
Elasticity is the ability of materials to return to their original shape after a deforming (stretching, compressing, shearing, bending) force has been removed.
The Nature of Sound - The Physics Hypertextbook
The speed of sound in a medium is generally affected by two things: elasticity and inertia. This is the Newton-Laplace equation. Laplace added the γ (gamma) correction factor for ideal gases.
Motion - The Physics Hypertextbook
In general, a force is anything that causes a change (like a change in energy or motion or shape). When a force causes a change in the energy of a system, physicists say that work has been done. The mathematical statement that relates forces to changes in energy is called the work-energy theorem.
Energy - The Physics Hypertextbook
(The vis viva of matter in motion, thermometric heat, radiant heat, light, chemical action, and electric currents, are forms of actual energy; amongst those of potential energy are the mechanical powers of gravitation, elasticity, chemical affinity, statical electricity, and magnetism).
