Q: Which property of a material enables it to resist deformation :
  • A. Stiffness
  • B. Creep
  • C. Fatigue
  • D. Toughness
Correct Answer: Option A - Stiffness – It is the property of a material which enables it to resist deformation. Toughness– toughness is the resistance to the impact loading. If a metal is tough then it is able to store large strain energy before fracture.
