Quiz 7 Mechanical Properties of Metals

This is a change of the shape of the body as a reaction to applied stress.

-elastic deformation
Time dependent recoverable deformation under load is called ____________ deformation.
-anelastic
It is the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform before fracturing.
-toughness
A good malleable material possesses
- high degree of plasticity
It is known as the relationship between engineering stress and engineering strain for elastic deformation (tension
and compression).
-Hooke’s Law
The permanent mode of deformation of a material known as
- plasticity
It is the resistance of a material to breaking under tension.
-Tensile strength
The capacity of a material to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically and then, upon unloading, to have this
energy recovered.
-resilience
The net movement of anything generally from a region of a higher concentration to a region lower concentration.
-diffusion
Charpy’s V notch test is done on a building material to determine
-brittleness
Strain energy stored in a material when it is strained within its elastic limit is termed as
-resilience
It is used to determine how materials will behave under tension load,
-tension test
Elastic deformation is
-nonpermanent
It refers to the degree of deformation that a material withstands in the direction of applied forces
-shear stress
The ability of materials to develop a characteristic behavior under repeated loading known as
-fatigue
The tendency of a material to fracture without appreciable deformation is called
-brittleness
This is the stress at the maximum on the engineering stress-strain curve
-tensile strength
This is a variation of pure shear in which a structural member is twisted in the manner.
-torsion
The ability of a material to resist plastic deformation known as
-yield strength
It is particularly desirable in the materials which are subjected to shock loading.
-toughness
Deformation that occurs due to stress over a period of time is known as
-creep
Resistance of a material against any external force is termed as
-strength
Elastic deformation is
-nonpermanent
It is defined as load per unit area.
-stress
They produce a rotational motion about the longitudinal axis of one end of the member
relative to the other end.
-torsional forces
Time-dependent permanent deformation is called
-creep
This is the ratio of the stress in a body to the corresponding strain.
-modulus of elasticity
Ductility may be expressed quantitatively as either percent elongation or percent
reduction in
-area
The ability of a material to be formed by hammering or rolling is known as
-malleability
The failure of the material due to cyclic loads is known as
-fatigue
Elastic-plastic transition, the point of yielding may be determined as the initial departure from linearity of the stress-
strain curve; this is sometimes called the
-proportional limit
It is the degree of plastic deformation at fracture.
-ductility
This test is conducted in a manner similar to the tensile test, except that the force is compressive and the specimen
contracts along the direction of the stress.
-compression test
The stress corresponding to the intersection of this line and the stress–strain curve as it bends over in the plastic
region is defined as the
-yield strength
The deformation in which stress and strain are proportional is called
-elastic
Their role is to determine stresses and stress distributions within members that are subjected to well-defined loads.
-structural engineers
This is the equivalent of the applied uniaxial tensile or compressive force at time.
-engineering stress
It is a measure of a material’s resistance to localized plastic deformation
-hardness
This is the law of elasticity.
- Hooke’s law
The ability of a material to absorb energy in the elastic region is called
-resilience
