Answer» Anelastic modulus(also known asmodulus of elasticity) is a quantity that measures an object or substance's resistance to being deformed elastically (i.e., non-permanently) when astressis applied to it. The elastic modulus of an object is defined as theslopeof itsstress–strain curvein the elastic deformation region:[1]A stiffer material will have a higher elastic modulus. An elastic modulus has the form:Young's modulus = stress/strain. wherestressis the force causing the deformation divided by the area to which the force is applied andstrainis the ratio of the change in some parameter caused by the deformation to the original value of the parameter. If stress is measured inpascals, then since strain is a dimensionless quantity, the units ofλwill be pascals as well. Please hit the like button if this helped you. |
