Elasticity is not the ability to deform a material. It is
the ability to resist the the deforming force.
"The property by which a body returns to its orginal shape
after the removal of external load is called elasticity."
-Strength of Materials by B.C.Punmia, Ashok Jain, Arun Jain
The Young's modulus of elasticity (E) is a measure of this
elasticity of a material.
Hence, E (glass) > E (rubber)

The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium. The metal spheres are identical and each has a mass of 2 kg. The surface areas of the pistons are equal and 100 square centimeters each. The density of water is 1 g per cubic centimeter. Assuming that the frictions and masses of the pistons are negligible, what is the mass of G? ( g = 10N/kg )
