A manufacturer tests two flexible clips, R and S. Forces bend each clip open and are then removed.
The manufacturer measures the gap between the ends of each clip.
| Clip | Gap before forces are applied in mm | Gap while forces are applied in mm | Gap after forces are removed in mm |
|---|---|---|---|
| R | 4.0 | 14.0 | 4.0 |
| S | 4.0 | 13.0 | 6.0 |
Describe how the results show that both clips are deformed while the forces are applied.
Explain what the results after the forces are removed show about the deformation of each clip.
