Break point - ANS-End of plastic behavior; where a material breaks
What is 0.2% offset yield (Engineering yield strength) - ANS-the stress at which a
material exhibits a specified deviation from proportionality of stress/strain. Also, it
hard to determine precisely so yield point is considered at an offset strain of 0.2%

to modulus of elasticity
Modulus of Elasticity
(What is it?, formula, where on stress/strain curve, tell about the material?) - ANS-
-A measure of rigidity ( or stiffness)

Elastic Behavior - ANS-returns to original shape
, Plastic Behavior - ANS-Does not return to original shape... permanent deformation
Necking - ANS-Tensile deformation where relatively large amounts of strain localize
disproportionately in a small region of the material (post UTS an about to break)
Impact testing (what for) - ANS-Tests toughness; measures a materials ability to
with stand a shock load
- Temperature also has a huge impact on it
Impact Testing (how) - ANS-Take a material that is NOTCHED, whack it with
pendulum or hammer; Charpy Vee or Izod
Charpy Impact Testing - ANS-- Has a notch in it and is facing away from impact
