Hooke's law_______________________?

Correct answer: A. Applies to elastic deformation

  • A. Applies to elastic deformation
  • B. Applies beyond limit of proportionality in stress-strain curve
  • C. States that stress is inversely proportional to strain upto elastic limit
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Hooke's law states that stress is proportional to strain within the proportional limit, which lies in the elastic region. It does not apply beyond that limit, and stress is not inversely proportional to strain.
