'Young's modulus' is defined as the ratio of
Options
- Atensile stress and longitudinal strain
- Bhydraulic stress and hydraulic strain
- Cshearing stress and shearing strain
- Dbulk stress and longitudinal strain
Correct answer
A. tensile stress and longitudinal strain
Step-by-step solution
Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of tensile stress and longitudinal strain. It is a measure of the ability of a material to with stand changes in length under tension or compression.
