(2) (2 pts) figure 2 shows the stress-strain curves under tension for four materials in their elastic regions. A material"s elastic modulus (e, intrinsic stiffness ) determines how much stress (tensile or compressive) on a material is required to induce a given strain [units of pressure] A material"s compliance determines how much strain results from an applied stress (compliance is the inverse of e) [units of 1/pressure] A material"s elastic strength is how much stress (tensile or compressive) is applied at the point where the material yields (i. e. , stops responding elastically to the applied stress) [units of pressure]
