What is elastic limit in relation to earthquakes?
How far you can bend (or stretch) something before it fails to return to its original shape when released.
How do you know the material is elastic?
it depends on modulus of elasticity / young's modulus,,,,,,,which is ratio of stress and strain under elastic limit
Can i have a list of elastic limits of some objects?
The Wikipedia lists the elastic limit for some materials, in the article "Yield (engineering)".
What is plasticity in chemistry?
Plasticity is the characteristic of a metal where it undergoes inelastic strains beyond the elastic limit.Until the elastic limit point, the strain that a metal undergoes is elastic, meaning the metal will regain its original dimensions upon unloading. For example, during a tensile test, a metal pulled in tension to a strain below its elastic limit will return to its original dimensions upon release.However, if a metal is strained beyond the elastic limit into the plastic region, the strain will be inelastic, meaning the metal will be unable to return to its original dimensions upon unloading. Large deformations in ductile materials result in plastic flow.Metals experience periods of both elastic and plastic deformation. On a stress-strain curve, the elastic region is followed by the plastic region. Oftentimes, the elastic limit is approximated as equal to the proportional limit and (for mild steel) the yield stress.
What happens when the stress and strain of elastic deformation along tectonic plates reaches the breaking point?
This is known as faulting. As such, the broken surfaces are known as faults.
Does condoms rip?
They are elastic-y, so they have a limit to how far they can stretch
What happens to an elastic material when a weight is hung on to it?
Weight causes the elastic material to stretch. The material may be stretched beyond its elastic limit. If this happens, then the material rips or tears, or it does not return to its original size.

What are examples of elastic materials?
All materials are elastic to a point. An elastic material is one that returns to its original size and shape when the load that is causing it to bend or stretch, is removed. At some point all materials will exceed their "elastic limit". Mild steel used for building structures is quite elastic if not over loaded. Rubber such as a rubber band is extremely elastic but it also has an elastic limit, and an ultimate strength. Glass is not very elastic and is considered brittle.
A certain spring stretches 6 cm when a load of 15 N is suspended from it How much will the spring stretch if 30 N is suspended from it and it doesn't reach its elastic limit?
It will stretch 6 cm.
Does an object remain in elastic beyound elastic limit?
No..!
What is Difference between elastic limit and proportional limit?
Proportionality limit is the point upto which the stress remains directly proportional to strain whereas elastic limit is the point upto which the material remains elastic ie. if the stress is removed within elastic limit, then the material will regain its original shape and size.

Is a solid object not elastic below the elastic limit?
yes
Can you use the word exceeding in a sentence?
Exceeding the speed limit may lead to you being arrested
Can you exceed the speed limit only when passing a vehicle on a two lane way?
If they are doing the speed limit, there should be no reason to pass them. If you are exceeding the speed limit to pass someone, you could get a ticket particularly if they are exceeding the speed limit.
How do you increase elastic limit?
since freezing elastic object decreases its elastic limits, increasing temperature would increase elastic limits.
