Deformation of Solids

Deformation of Solids


💗 Solid is characterized by very packed particles and they are not free to move around within the substance. A solid can change its shape when pressure is applied to it. The forces applied to the solids will amend the position of the solid particles and its spacings. This will then changes the external structure or shape and size of the solid, which defines deformation of solids. 
  • Stress is the measure of the force required to cause solid deformation.
  • A strain is the measure of the degree of deformation. The strain is given as a fractional change in either the length, geometry or volume. It is a dimensionless number. 
  • The greater the stress, the greater the strain. The proportionality constant in this relation is known as the  Young's modulus,Y .  
                               Stress Young's modulus,Y  strain
  • The ratio of stress to strain is known as Young's modulus. It defines the amount of force required per unit deformation.

Types of Deformation

💚Deformation can be of two types as follows:

  • Permanent Deformation – Also known as plastic deformation,  It is a type of deformation that stays even after the applied forces are removed.
  • Temporary Deformation – Also known as elastic deformation, it is reversible. It is a type of deformation that disappears after the applied forces are removed.

 

💜When a force is applied onto a material , the material experiences elastic deformation followed by plastic deformation. The transition from elastic to plastic state is characterized by the yield strength of the material.

Concept Mapping

Salam 'alaik,  InshaAllah, today I would like to share about what I've been learning from my Master course that is CONCEPT MAPPING. We did it practically during the lesson, not just learning it by theory. This hands on experience really intrigued me.  Concept Mapping is a verb.  It is  a way to connect the knowledge of certain topics based on its concepts while Concept Map is a noun where  it is a type of graphic organizer used to help students organize and represent knowledge of a subject.  Concept maps  begin with a main idea (or c oncept ) and then branch out to show how that the ideas are connected to the other ideas. In order to link the concepts, we need to start a sentence by a quantity and end it also by a quantity.  Our lecturer, Dr NurulHuda had introduced a website  where we able to apply doing concept map. We practiced using this software by applying 2 topics. The first concept map is for the States of Matter and the second one is for the Trend in Educationa

Capacitors

Capacitors Capacito r is a device that is normally used in electrical appliances such as radios, computers and TV. There are many different types(looks) of capacitors as shown below: The function of the capacitor is to store electrical charges. Remember , we have 2 types of charges ( positive and negative). Once the capacitor has stored the charge, it can release electrical energy. I give you an example: The flash unit of camera also uses a capacitor. The fact that the camera can give out the flash, it is actually releasing the energy from the charge that is stored in the capacitor. When we measure something , it must has its own quantity and unit. For example, (i) the length (quantity) of a ruler --> the unit is metre (ii) the mass  (quantity) of a ball --> the unit is  kg Same goes to the capacitor, the quantity measured by the capacitor is capacitance and its unit is Farad.  Scientifically, the meaning of capacitance is the ratio of the amount of  charge

ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE (emf) & INTERNAL RESISTANCE

Electromotive Force (emf) What is emf? It is defined as the energy provided by the source (battery/cell) to each unit charge that flows in a circuit. It means that, if we connect a battery in circuit, the battery will give energy to the charge, enable it to flow. emf = Energy (U)/ charge (q) We can see here that emf has the same unit as that of potential difference that is VOLT. So, please bear in our mind, electromotive force ( emf) is not actually a force, it is a potential difference of unit of VOLT. Internal Resistance (r) Consider this ⇩ case to comprehend more: We start with Diagram 2, Diagram 2 A battery of 1.5 V is connected to a circuit which consist of on external resistor, R. At the same time, we connect a voltmeter and the voltmeter reading shows the reading of 1.3 V !!! That is less than the emf value. The concept here is that the battery gives 1.5 joules of electrical energy to each coulomb (charge) that passes through it. But the energy that
