When we talk about deformatation, we are referring to two properties, namely Elasticity and Plasticity. These properties are measured using constants known as " Moduli of Elasticity". There are 4 such moduli: Young's Modulus Axial Modulus Rigidity Modulus Bulk Modulus The larger the value of the Bulk Modulus, the harder it is to compress the material.

Why solids transmit sound better than liquids and gases?
Solids transmit sound and vibration better than liquids and gases because solids' particles molecule's are stuck close together but gas' particles are far off wandering around while liquid's particles are not so close but closer than gas . The best sound/vibration creator is solids then liquids and last gases . Plus to put it in a way that any first grader would say is that a solid is hard so when you bang them together they make an astronomical sound . Its nothing really complex .
What is the difference between fluids and solids?
fluids move and are liquids, soldids are hard and and is like a dresser or something
Is a solid hard to deform?
Yes.
How do you decide whether a sample of matter is a solid liquid or gas?
The differences between a solid, liquid and gas are simple! A solid is an object that has a set volume, and is hard to compress. A liquid will take the shape of its container, but is hard to compress. A gas will take the shape of its container, and is easy to compress.
Why do balls bounce better on hard surfaces than soft ones?
Soft surfaces absorb quite a lot of the energy (by deforming) that the ball uses to spring back up, whereas hard surfaces don't absorb that energy (because they don't deform), and so the energy is used to deform the ball, which is then converted back into kinetic energy and the ball bounces.
Which state of matter is most rigid?
Gases tend to float away by themselves. You can pour Liquids BUT, Solids are hard to deform.
How hard are gases?
"Hardness" is only defined for solids - not for liquids or gases.
Why can liquids and gases take the shape of their containers but solids cant?
Because a solid is.. well, solid. Liquids morph, because they aren't "hard"
How are green house gases made?
Gases are made when you heat up solids or liquids. Liquids are made when you cool down gases or heat up solids. Solids are made when you cool down gases or solids. When you heat up solids they make liquids and when you heat up liquids it makes gases. When you heat up gases it makes plasma (plas-mu) but that is very very very very very very hard to make.
What are the Molecular structure of solids gases and liquids?
in solids the molecules are rigid, hard to move, stuck together in liquids they are close together but can still move in gasses theyre far apart with alot of space between molecules, they can move very freely

How are solids and liquids diffrent?
solids and liquids are different from each other because a solid is hard and you can eat it ,a liquid is something you drink.
Compare and contrast the properties of liquids and solids?
Solids are hard but liquids have no feeling. Solids have a shape but liquids do not.
How are solids and liquids determine?
solids are hard the molecules are squished together and if you pour it in a glass it wont take shape. liquids will take any shape
What do you solids liquids and gases have in common?
They are both made of matter, their particles both vibrate, they flow easily, and can both assume the shape of their containers.
Why do solids have fixed shapes and liquids and gasses don't?
That is because everything is made of molecules: 1. solids are made up of hard molecules and they stick to each other. 2.Liquids have soft molecules which are soft and there is enough space between them.(that is the reason if you throw liquid on the floor it runs). 3. Gases are made of molecules but the molecules are completely roaming here and there.
How are solids and liquid different?
solids hold their shape but liquids take the shape of the container there in
