Physics-Young's Modulus
NEET Physics Young's Modulus Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 11
Assertion (A): Young's modulus of a material is a measure of its stiffness. | Reason (R): Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of stress to strain in the linear elastic region of the stress-strain curve.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Young's modulus is indeed a measure of stiffness, as it quantifies the ratio of stress to strain, indicating how much a material will deform under a given load.
