    elastic?
    A Rubber Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Wet clay Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Steel Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Plastic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In physics, elasticity is a physical property of materials which return to their original shape after the stress that caused their deformation is no longer applied. For very small deformations, most elastic materials, such as springs, exhibit linear elasticity. This means that they are characterized by a linear relationship between stress and strain (the relative amount of deformation).
