Answer 1

The limit beyond which the material doesn't behave elastically is known as elastic limit.

Answer 2

The limit beyond which the material does not behave elastically is known as elastic limit.

Explanation:

• The proportional limit is the factor on a stress-strain curve in which the linear, elastic deformation area transitions right into a non-linear, plastic deformation area.
• Elastic limit, stress per unit area or maximum force inside a solid material that could arise before the onset of permanent deformation.
• The material resumes its unique length and shape when stressed as much as the elastic limit removed.
• Elasticity may be calculated through the use of Hooke's law (F = KΔL).
• Here ΔL is the elongation  and a relatively elastic material like rubber has a completely small value of k due to the fact it may be stretched without difficulty with a small force.
