Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

Hookes law establishes the relationship between stress and strain Stress: The force per unit

area Strain: The elongation or contraction per unit length (dimensionless) The ratio of stress to strain is known as the elastic modulus of the material Hookes law establishes the relationship between stress and strain Stress: The force per unit area

Strain: The elongation or contraction per unit length (dimensionless) The ratio of stress to strain is known as the elastic modulus of the material Elastic Modulus

Hence, the modulus of elasticity is dimensionally equivalent to the stress
Elastic Modulus
Hence, the modulus of elasticity is dimensionally equivalent to the stress
