Physics-Elastic Behavior

NEET Physics Elastic Behavior MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Hard-Class 11

Consider a stress-strain diagram for a solid material, where the region OA represents the proportional limit. Which of the following best describes this region in terms of its relation to Hooke's Law and the material's behavior?

Question diagram
A

The stress is directly proportional to the strain, obeying Hooke's Law.

B

The material exhibits plastic deformation and does not return to its original shape.

C

The stress-strain curve is non-linear, indicating the material is an elastomer.

D

The material's deformation is permanent, indicating a failure point.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In the proportional region within the elastic limit (region OA), stress is directly proportional to strain, obeying Hooke's Law, as indicated by the NCERT context.
