Question

Consider the following statements.
1. If a body completely gains its original shape after removal of forces, it is elastic body.
2. The property to restore the natural shape of a body is elasticity.
3. When a body partially regains its original shape after removal of deforming force it is partially elastic.
Which one of the options is/are correct?

• A. 1 and 2
• B. 1 and 3
• C. 2 and 3
• D. All are correct

Answer 1

The correct option is D All are correct

Elasticity is the ability of a body to resist a distorting influence or deforming force and to return to its original size and shape when that influence or force is removed.

If the material is elastic, the object will return to its initial shape and size when these forces are removed.

So all statements are correct.
