Elasticity(Definition and formula)

Elasticity

Elasticity is a property of an object or material which will restore it to its original shape after distortion.
A spring is an example of an elastic object - when stretched, it exerts a restoring force which tends to bring it back to its original length. This restoring force is in general proportional to the stretch described by Hooke's Law.
