Question

Steel is more elastic than rubber. This means for same applied stress, strain will be a)more for steel b)less for steel c) more or less for steel d) equal for steel and rubber

Answer 1

Answer:

The modulus of elasticity of steel is greater than that of rubber because under the same stress. Modulus of elasticity is inversely proportional to strain for a given stress. If steel and rubber are under the same stress, the strain in steel is less than rubber . Hence steel is more elastic than rubber.
