Sample Question 1
Which one of the following statements regarding rock deformation and strength is correct?

Rupture and plastic deformation occur when stresses exceed the elastic limit of a material.

Rocks undergo plastic deformation less readily as temperatures and pressures increase.

Elastic deformation is accomplished through internal flow of material.

When rocks are subjected to stress for long time periods, very small, plastic deformations accumulate to produce large, permanent, elastic deformations.

Horizontally directed; compressive stresses

Vertically directed; extensional or stretching stresses

Horizontally directed; extensional stresses

Vertically directed; compressional stresses
