Elasticity is the ability of a material to return to its original shape and size after being stretched or compressed.
Think of a rubber band. When you stretch it, it deforms. But when you release it, it snaps back to its original shape. This is because rubber is an elastic material.
Stress: The force applied per unit area of a material.
Strain: The deformation of a material in response to stress.
Elastic Limit: The maximum stress a material can withstand before it permanently deforms.
