NEET Physics Young's Modulus MCQ Question
A diagram shows a steel rope used in a crane for lifting heavy loads, with a specified cross-sectional area. Which property of the steel rope ensures that it does not permanently deform under a load of 10 tonnes?

Yield strength
Compressive stress
Shearing stress
Hydraulic stress
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Yield strength of mild steel, as described in the context, determines the minimum cross-sectional area needed to avoid permanent deformation of the rope under load.
