Which of the following statement is correct?
The energy stored in a body, when strained within elastic limit is known as strain energy.
The maximum strain energy which can be stored in a body is termed as proof resilience.
The proof resilience per unit volume of a material is known as modulus of resilience.

2nd statement i.e. option 'B' is incorrect. Proof resilience is the maximum energy stored 'within elastic limit'. So correct answer is option C.

Proof resilience is defined as the maximum energy that can be absorbed within the elastic limit, without creating a permanent distortion. The modulus of resilience is defined as the maximum energy that can be absorbed per unit volume without creating a permanent distortion.

This test will improve our knowledge.

But, when the maximum energy should be stored in elastic region, then only it will called as proof resilience.
