it says 'when the sample contracts it follows the same force extension pattern;hence definitely not plastic'
X is the limit of proportionality and Y is the elastic limit.
i guess it is because the qs says 'when the sample contracts it follows the same force-extension curve as when it was being stretched'
it means the behaviour is ELASTIC not plastic!!
Ahhhhh, okay. Thank you, both of you!
