Question
The stress at which extension of a material takes place more quickly as compared to the increase in load is called ......
Correct Answer
Option D is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The yielding point (or yield point) is the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically. Beyond this point, the material extends more quickly without a significant increase in load. The elastic point is where deformation is still elastic, plastic point is vague, breaking point is where fracture occurs.
Hint
This is the point where permanent deformation starts.
