The opposite of elastic is inelastic, where a material cannot stretch and rebound. A material without this quality could be "inflexible" (rigid, stiff) or one that did not rebound, termed "plastic" (deformable).
Elastic suggests that the material recovers its original shape after an applied load is removed. Plastic means that it doesn't recover its shape. Steel is an example of an elasticmaterial, when it is loaded within its capacity. It becomes plastic if it is overloaded. Concrete can be considered an elastic material only in compression.
your face for gods sake
The definition of elastic vibration was found in the website at the bottom. Elastic vibration is oscillating movement of a solid object in which a large majority of the energy is retained though elastic forces and with inertia of the object.www.answers.com/topic/elastic-vibration
An elastic foundation is a foundation that is not rigid and follows Hook's law. The implications of an analysis on an elastic foundation are that you can no longer assume zero deflection from at the base of loaded structures.
A: GOLD in a vacuum can be spread to a film steel does not have this property
why is yew wood elastic? cheers desperately need this info for my physics coursework!
The opposite would be flexible. For an object, it could be ductile, bendable, elastic, or malleable. For a person, it could be amenable, accomodating, or receptive.
An example of perfectly inelastic demand would be a life-saving drug that people will pay any price to obtain. Elastic demand is the opposite of this.
Two kids trying to recover a ball and they are pulling it in opposite directions. or tension force=pulling/stretching and compression force=pushing closer An elastic band.
Longitudinal elastic fibers enable the trachea to stretch and descend with the roots of the lungs during inspiration.
shape or configuration of objects causes elastic potential energy as this is the energy stored in the object which allows it to deform itself.The spring regains its shape due to restoring force which is always opposite to the force applied
elastic
Elastic substances return to their original shape after being deformed. Hooke's Law tells us that the force an elastic object, such as a spring, uses to reinstate itself to an original length is relative to, but in the opposite direction, of the length the spring is stretched.
suffix for elastic
It is called Elastic Clause because it can be stretched like elastic.
The midpoint between elastic and inelastic is unit elastic
