Strength of Materials - Engineering

Q1:

Which of the following statement is correct?

A The energy stored in a body, when strained within elastic limit is known as strain energy.

B The maximum strain energy which can be stored in a body is termed as proof resilience.

C The proof resilience per unit volume of a material is known as modulus of resilience.

D all of the above

ANS:D - all of the above

Proof resilience is defined as the maximum energy that can be absorbed within the elastic limit, without creating a permanent distortion. The modulus of resilience is defined as the maximum energy that can be absorbed per unit volume without creating a permanent distortion.
