FAQs on HC Verma Solutions: Chapter 14 - Some Mechanical Properties of Matter - Physics Class 11 - NEET

1. What are the mechanical properties of matter?
Ans. Mechanical properties of matter refer to the characteristics that describe how matter behaves under the action of external forces. These properties include elasticity, plasticity, strength, hardness, and toughness.
2. How is elasticity related to the mechanical properties of matter?
Ans. Elasticity is a mechanical property of matter that describes the ability of a material to return to its original shape and size after being deformed by an external force. Materials that exhibit high elasticity can undergo temporary deformation and then regain their original state when the force is removed.
3. What is the difference between strength and hardness in terms of mechanical properties of matter?
Ans. Strength and hardness are both mechanical properties of matter, but they refer to different aspects. Strength describes the ability of a material to withstand an applied force without breaking or deforming permanently, while hardness refers to the resistance of a material to indentation or scratching. Strength is related to the internal structure and bonding of the material, while hardness depends on the arrangement and density of atoms.
4. What is plasticity in the context of mechanical properties of matter?
Ans. Plasticity is a mechanical property of matter that describes the ability of a material to undergo permanent deformation without breaking. When a material is subjected to an external force beyond its elastic limit, it deforms permanently and does not regain its original shape and size. This property is important in processes like shaping and molding of materials.
5. How is toughness different from strength in terms of mechanical properties of matter?
Ans. Toughness and strength are both mechanical properties of matter, but they measure different aspects of a material's behavior under external forces. Strength refers to the ability of a material to withstand an applied force without breaking or deforming permanently. On the other hand, toughness describes the ability of a material to absorb energy and resist fracture when subjected to an impact or sudden load. Toughness takes into account both strength and the ability to deform plastically before breaking.
