CONCEPT:

  • Stress: The restoring force per unit area set up inside a body produced by the application of a deforming force.
  • Strain: The relative change in the shape of the body due to the stress.
  • Elasticity: The property of a body by virtue of which the body can recover its original shape and size after removal of the deforming force.
  • Scientist Hooke has given a law regarding this. The law is "Under elastic limit, stress is proportional to strain".

Young's modulus of elasticity (E) = stress/Strain

  • The value of this modulus of elasticity is different for different materials.
  • The SI unit of this is Nm-2 or Pascal. So option 1 is correct.

Elasticity constant is of three types:

Elasticity constant name Symbol Formula
Young's modulus Y Longitudinal stress/Longitudinal strain
Bulk Modulus K Volume stress/Volume strain
Rigidity modulus G Tangential stress/ Tangential strain
