===Meaning===
The '''elastic limit''' is the point at maximum [[force]] which a can be applied before an [[materialobject]] stops behaving [[Elastic Deformation|elastically]] and starts to behave [[Plastic Deformation|plastically(inelastically)]].
===About the Elastic Limit===
: When a an [[materialobject]] reaches its '''elastic limit''' it will break.: When an [[object]] experiences a [[force]] smaller than the '''elastic limit''' then its [[extension]] is proportional to the [[Equilibrium Force|equilibrium force]] applied.: When an [[object]] experiences a [[force]] greater than the '''elastic limit''' then its [[extension]] is not proportional to the [[Equilibrium Force|equilibrium force]] applied. It will continue to [[extension|extend]] with a constant [[force]]. ===References=======Edexcel==== :[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1782948163/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=1782948163&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=0fdbfd5dd397d6e24a9dfb250f08587f ''Elastic limit, page 324, GCSE Physics, CGP, Edexcel ''] ====OCR====:[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0198359837/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=0198359837&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=3c4229e8b023b2b60768e7ea2307cc6f ''Elastic limit, pages 78, Gateway GCSE Physics, Oxford, OCR '']
