The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "Solids which break above the elastic limit are called," we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Stress-Strain Graph**: - Begin by considering the stress-strain graph, where the x-axis represents stress and the y-axis represents strain. 2. **Identifying Key Points on the Graph**: - On this graph, we identify several important points: - Point A: Elastic Limit - Point B: Yield Point - Point C: Ultimate Tensile Strength - Point D: Fracture Point 3. **Defining the Elastic Limit**: - The elastic limit (Point A) is the maximum stress that a material can withstand without permanent deformation. Beyond this point, the material will not return to its original shape. 4. **Understanding Material Behavior Beyond the Elastic Limit**: - When a solid is subjected to stress beyond the elastic limit, it may either deform plastically or break. 5. **Classifying Solids Based on Their Behavior**: - Solids that break after reaching the elastic limit are classified as **brittle solids**. These materials do not undergo significant plastic deformation before breaking. 6. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the answer to the question is that solids which break above the elastic limit are called **brittle solids**. ### Final Answer: **Brittle solids**

What is elastic limit?

Assertion : The materials which have very small range of plastic extension are called brittle material. Reason: If the stress is increased beyond the elastic limit, the material will break.

Molecules with limited metabolic activity are called

State whether the following statements are true or false with reasons. a. Elastic forces are always conservative. b. Elastic forces are strictly conservative only when Hooke's law is obeyed. c. When a wire is loaded beyond the elastic limit and then reloaded, the work done disappears completely as heat.

Materials get deformed when force is applied. Some of them regain their status when the applied force is removed. They are termed as elastic. Those of which not regaining are called plastic. There may be delay in the regaining in some materials. They are said to have got elastic aftereffect, since they have gone beyond the elastic limit. Repeated application and removal of force leads to fatigueness in the material. Fatigued materials may break at any point time and so are avoided. The stress strain graph for two materials A and B is shown in the following figure: The time in which the two materials regain their original status is t_(A) and t_(B) related as t_(B)=2t_(B) . Then the material under elastic aftereffect (relatively) is
