According to Hooke's law, within the elastic limit stress/strain = constant. This constant depends on the type of strain or the type of force acting. Tensile stress might result in compressional or elongative strain, however, a tangential stress can only cause a shearing strain. After crossing the elastic limit, the material undergoes elongation and beyond a stage beaks. All modulus of elasticity are basically constants for the materials under stress. If stress/strain is x in elastic region and y in the region of yield, then

(i) State Hook's law. (ii) Draw a labelled graph of tensile stress against tensile strain for a metal wire upto the breaking point. Shhow on your graph the region in which Hooke's law is obeyed. What is the significance of the area between the graph and the strain axis withing the Hooke's law region?
