Question

The materials which exhibit uniform elastic properties in all direction is termed _

• A. Isotropic
• B. Isentropic
• C. Homogeneous
• D. Inelastic

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Isotropic

Isotropic materials have identical properties in all directions. Metals and glasses are examples. To define the elastic behavior of an isotropic material, only 2 independent elastic constraints are required. Homogeneous materials cannot be separated into different materials and have uniform composition throughout.
