Topic: Strength of Materials

A body which is permanently deformed is said to have undergone

  • A. Elastic deformation
  • B. Limit of elastic deformation
  • C. Plastic deformation
  • D. Uniform deformation

Answer: C. Plastic deformation

Explanation: Plastic deformation is the process in which the object changes its size or shape that is not reversible because of the applied force. So, a body which is permanently deformed is said to have undergone plastic deformation.
