: In '''elastic deformation''' the [[extension]] of an [[object]] is increases as the [[force]] increases.
: [[Elastic]] [[materials]] can be '''deformed''' (stretched) so far that they break, or start to '''deform''' [[Plastic Deformation|plastically]].
: [[Work Done|Work]] is done to '''elastically deform''' an [[object]].
: [[Elastic]] [[material]]s store [[Elastic Potential Energy Store|elastic potential energy]] when they are '''elastically deformed'''.
Some common [[elastic]] [[material]]s are:
*[[Rubber]]
: In '''elastic deformation''' the [[extension]] of an [[object]] is [[Directly Proportional|directly proportional]] to the [[Equilibrium Forces|equilibrium forces]] applied.
: [[Elastic]] [[materials]] can be '''deformed''' so far that they reach their [[Elastic Limit|elastic limit]] and begin to '''deform''' [[Inelastic Deformation|inelastically]].
: [[Work Done|Work]] is done to '''elastically deform''' an [[object]] as a [[Mechanical Energy Transfer|mechanical energy transfer]] increases the store of [[Elastic Potential Energy Store|elastic potential energy]].
