@Thamizh strain energy per unit volume is resilience.

How to differ strain energy and resilience?

Pallavi Binzade said:   6 years ago
Strain energy is the amount of energy stored in a body after the removal of external force within the elastic limit.

No,

Strain energy-it is the ability of a material to absorb energy when it is strained.
Resilience-ability of a material to absorb energy in the elastic region when it is strained.
Proof resilience-maximum energy absorbing capacity of a material in the elastic region is called proof resilience
Modulus of resilence-proof resilience per unit volume is called modules of resilience.

The correct answer is C.

1. Strain energy is the ability of a body to absorb energy, so when we are saying just strain energy then we are referring to the total energy the body can store upto fracture.

2. Resilience is the ability of a body store energy when it is deformed elastically only.

So I think both the answers are given wrong related to the strain energy concept.

Yes, it's whitin the elastic limit.

Shiv jha said:   8 years ago
Strain energy is the minimum energy required to produce deformation in body. Strain energy is measured within the elastic limits.

Prajwal said:   8 years ago
Anyone, can explain how the strain energy is measured?

Surya Kant Shukla said:   8 years ago
Strain energy is nothing but an energy which is generated either applying a tensile or compressive force on a component.
