Which is more Elastic Steel or rubber? Plz give the reason
also........ mchandan86@gmail.com

Answer Posted / muhammad shafi syed

Recall what elastic means...it means the substance than can
regain its shape after the application of deforming forces
on it.
Steel is a much better elastic than rubber because for the
very same reason, it is very hard to deform it and if were
to do it, it will regain its shape back very quickly. Rubber
is very easy to stretch and can be broken without much effort.
This makes its young 's modulus very high indeed.
