3.1.1 Materials And Their Applications Flashcards
What is a mechanical Property ?
Mechanical properties are associated with how a material reacts to an external force
What are Physical Properties ?
physical properties are associated with the structure of the materials
What is compressive strength ?
(Mechanical)
The ability to withstand being crushed by pushing forces (compression)
What is Tesnsile Strength ?
(Mechanical)
The ability to resist stretching or pulling forces (tension)
What is Benidng Strength
(Mechanical)
The ability to resist forces of that can bend the material
What is Shear Strength ?
(Mechanical)
The ability to resist sliding forces on a parallel plane
What is Torsional Strength ?
(Mechanical)
The ability to withstand twisting forces from torsion
What is Hardness ?
(Mechanical )
The ability to resist abrasive wear such as scratching or cutting
What is Toughness ?
(Mechanical)
The ability to absorb impact force without fracture
What is Plasticity ?
(Mechanical)
The ability to be permanently deformed and stay in the deformed shape
What is Ductility ?
(Mechanical)
The ability for a material to be drawn/streched into wires without snapping.
What is Malleability ?
(Mechanical)
when an object can be deformed without breaking.
What is Elasticity ?
(Mechanical)
The abilty for a material to be deformed and then return back to original sate.
What is Fusibility ?
(Physical )
The ability of the material to be fused or converted from from solid to liquid.
What is Density ?
(Physical )
The mass of the material in a volume space
