Which of the following materials is closest to being perfectly elastic?
Show answer
Quartz fiber
Quartz fiber is the nearest approach to a perfectly elastic body as it regains its original shape completely after deformation.
What happens to intermolecular forces when the separation between molecules is greater than the equilibrium separation?
Show answer
They become attractive
When molecular separation exceeds equilibrium distance (R₀), the net force becomes attractive.
