Answer:
Steel is more elastic than rubber because steel comes back to its original shape faster than rubber when the deforming forces are removed. ... In physics a substance is labeled more elastic if it offers greater resistance to deformation than other bodies, so that it can be stretched less than others

Answer:
Steel is more elastic than rubber. We know that Young's modulus is the ratio of stress to the strain. ... Therefore, for a given stress, the strain produced in steel is much smaller than that produced in the rubber. This implies that Young's modulus for steel is greater than that for rubber
