In a graph showing temperature change of a material over time, the x-axis typically represents time while the y-axis represents temperature. The slope of the line indicates the rate of temperature change, with a steeper slope representing a faster change in temperature. The point at which the line intersects the x-axis denotes the initial temperature of the material.

Predominantly due to friction. Major earthquakes (the ones you hear about on the news) occur at collision (where two tectonic plates are smashing together) and conservative (where two plates slide side-by-side) boundaries. Rocks (which obviously make up tectonic plates) can undergo two types of deformation, ductile (or plastic) and brittle. When you put stress on these rocks, which happens when they rub against each other, they will usually undergo ductile deformation providing the stress is constant and fairly low. If you've ever been to a big mountain range like the Himalaya, you'll see folds in the rocks. This is ductile deformation. Earthquakes occur when the stress reaches a point called the rupture point. When this point is reached, the rocks will not fold and twist, they'll simply break and energy is released, an earthquake. In plate tectonics, this happens in the Wadati-Benioff Zone (in collision boundaries). The best illustration for this ductile/brittle deformation process is using one of those plastic rulers found in schools around the world (Staedtler type). You can bend the ruler and it will actually bend quite a long way. However, it will reach a critical point where it will stop bending and just snap, releasing energy in the process. This energy is effectively the same as seismic waves in earthquakes (albeit on a much smaller scale) that will cause material around it to vibrate. Big enough vibrations = buildings collapse.

AnswerWhen the mass of a material is plotted against volume, the slope of the line is the density of the material.
The linear portion of the stress-strain curve represents the elastic deformation of a material. This is where the material behaves elastically and will return to its original shape once the applied stress is removed.
I assume you mean the curve of length against applied force (or mass) for a wire. The beginning part of the curve should be a straight line, and this is where the deformation is elastic. When the substance passes its elastic limit, the line starts to curve up.

Young Modulus is the slope of the stress-strain diagram in the linear elastic region. This is the most common use of modulus. As the material goes non-linear in the stress strain curve, thre slope will get increasingly lower. In this case one connects the end points of the stress strain diagram at the point of interest with a straight line. The slope of that straight line is the secant modulus.

A line segment
No. It represents a horizontal line.
On a graph depicting stress versus strain, the elastic limit is represented as the point at which the curve begins to deviate from a straight line, indicating that the material will no longer return to its original shape after the load is removed. This point is typically marked at the end of the linear elastic region of the graph, where Hooke's Law is applicable. Beyond the elastic limit, the material enters the plastic deformation region, where permanent deformation occurs.
