The Law of elasticity states that the strain (deformation) of an elastic object is proportional to the stress applied to it. Since stresses and strains have multiple independent components, the 'proportionality factor' is represented by a linear map (a tensor) constituting a matrix of real numbers.

Hookes law hold well up to?

Hooke's law describes the relationship between the force applied to a spring and the resulting extension or compression of the spring, as long as the material remains in the elastic deformation range of the stress-strain curve. Beyond the elastic limit, the material may exhibit plastic deformation, and Hooke's law may not apply.


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.


What is the definition of hookes law is science physics?

Hooke's Law states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by a distance is directly proportional to that distance. Mathematically, it is expressed as F = kx, where F is the force applied, k is the spring constant, and x is the distance the spring is stretched or compressed.


What materials obey hookes law of elasticity?

Materials such as metals (e.g. steel, aluminum), rubber, and certain plastics typically obey Hooke's Law of elasticity within their linear elastic range. This means they exhibit a linear relationship between stress and strain when subjected to small deformations.


How do you define hookes' law?

In mechanics, and physics, Hooke's law of elasticity is an approximation that states that the extension of a spring is in direct proportion with the load added to it as long as this load does not exceed the elastic limit. So if you keep inside the load limit of the spring, the spring will return to it's original shape. As soon as you exceed that load the spring will stretch and not return to it's original shape

Does a spring which is not in its elastic region obey Hookes law?

No, by definition Hooke's law relates to linear elastic only; when outside the elastic region it does not apply.


What is the permanent set of hooke's law?

Hookes law is: extension is proportional to the load provided the elastic limit is not exceeded not sure what "the permanent set" means?? sorry hope someone else can help if this did not


What was Roberts hookes law?

Robert Hooke's law states that within elastic limit, the strain produced is directly proportional to the stress applied. Hence Stess/strain = constant This constant is known as Modulus of elasticity.


What does hookes law relate to?

Hooke's Law relates to the elasticity of elastic objects, such as metal springs, and how they stretch in proportion to the force that acts on them.

What Example of hookes law?

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.

What does Hooke's law depend on?

Within the elastic limit of the material, a springs deformation is proportional to its loading.
