To describe elastic properties of linear objects like wires, rods, or columns which are stretched or compressed, a convenient parameter is the ratio of the stress to the strain, a parameter called the "Young's modulus" or "Modulus of Elasticity" of the material. Young's modulus can be used to predict the elongation or compression of an object as long as the stress is less than the yield strength of the material.

Strain
Strain can be expressed as strain = dL / L Microwave Product Digest where strain = (m/m) (in/in) dL = elongation or compression (offset) of the object (m) (in) L = length of the object (m) (in) (1)
Stress
Stress can be expressed as stress = F / A (2)
Engineering Standards
where stress = (N/m2) (lb/in2, psi) F = force (N) (lb) A = area of object (m2) (in2)
Elasticity
Elasticity is a property of an object or material which will restore it to its original shape after distortion. A spring is an example of an elastic object - when stretched, it exerts a restoring force which tends to bring it back to its original length. This restoring force is in general proportional to the stretch described by Hooke's Law.

Hooke's Law
One of the properties of elasticity is that it takes about twice as much force to stretch a spring twice as far. That linear dependence of displacement upon stretching force is called Hooke's law which can be expressed as F s = -k dL where F s = force in the spring (N) k = spring constant (N/m) dL = elongation of the spring (m) (4)
Yield strength
Yield strength, or the yield point, is defined in engineering as the amount of stress that a material can undergo before moving from elastic deformation into plastic deformation.
