What Is Elasticity?
Elasticity: Elasticity is an inherent property by virtue of which a body undergoing a change in length, volume, or shape due to the application of external forces, tends to regain…
-
What Are Strain And Stress?
Strain: When a force or a system of forces acting upon a body produces a relative displacement between its parts and the change in length, volume, or shape may take…

What Is Elastic Limit
Elastic Limit : There is a certain limit of the deforming forces up to which the behaviour of a body remains elastic, i.e, it regains its original shape or size…

What Is Hooke’s Law?
Hooke’s Law: There is a certain limit of deforming forces up to which the behavior of a body remains elastic. This is called the elastic limit of the material of…
-
What Are Young’s Modulus (Y) & Bulk Modulus (K)?
Young’s Modulus (Y): This modulus is defined as the ratio of longitudinal (tensile or compressive) stress to the corresponding strain within the elastic limit. Elastic Limit : There is a…

What Is Modulus Of Rigidity Or Shear Modulus?
Modulus of Rigidity or Shear Modulus: Modulus of rigidity is defined as the ratio of tangential stress to shear strain within the elastic limit. If a tangential force acts on…

What Is Poisson’s Ratio?
Poisson’s Ratio: When an object is elongated longitudinally in the direction of the tensile force, then there will be a lateral contraction. this means that the contraction is in a…

Relation Among Young Modulus(Y), Bulk Modulus(K), Modulus of Rigidity, Poisson’s Ratio.
There are three types of elastic modulus. These are 1. Young’s Modulus(Y): This is defined as the ratio of longitudinal stress to the corresponding strain within the elastic limit. READ…
