the ability of an object or material to regain its normal shape after being stretched or compressed; stretchiness.

- Elasticity is the ability of a body to resist a distorting influence and to return to its original size and shape when that influence or force is removed.
- Solid objects will deform when adequate forces are applied to them. If the material is elastic, the object will return to its initial shape and size when these forces are removed.
- Hooke's law states that the force should be proportional to the extension.
- The physical reasons for elastic behavior can be quite different for different materials.
- In metals, the atomic lattice changes size and shape when forces are applied (energy is added to the system).
- When forces are removed, the lattice goes back to the original lower energy state. For rubbers and other polymers, elasticity is caused by the stretching of polymer chains when forces are applied.
