Question

what is youngs modulus ?

Answer 1

→ Young’s modulus describes the relationship between stress (force per unit area) and strain (proportional deformation in an object.

→ The Young’s modulus is named after the British scientist Thomas Young. A solid object deforms when a particular load is applied to it.b

Answer 2

$\huge\mathtt{\underline{Youngs \:Modulus}}$

The mechanical property of a material to withstand the compression or the elongation with respect to its length.

It is denoted as E or Y.

Notations Used In The Young’s Modulus Formula

E is Young’s modulus in Pa

is the uniaxial stress in Pa

ε is the strain or proportional deformation

F is the force exerted by the object under tension

A is the actual cross-sectional area

ΔL is the change in the length

L0 is the actual length
