State the examples of nearly perfect elastic and plastic bodies.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

There is no perfectly elastic body. But
behaviour of Quartz fiber is very nearer to
perfectly elastic body.
Real bodies are not perfectly plastic, but behaviour of wet clay, butter etc., can be
taken as examples for perfectly plastic bodies.
