A
Young's Modulus is a measure of the stiffness of a material and is defined as the ratio of stress to strain.
B
Young's Modulus is greater for rubber compared to steel due to rubber's higher elasticity.
C
Young's Modulus applies only to materials that have undergone plastic deformation.
D
Young's Modulus is only relevant for compressive stress in materials.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Young's Modulus is indeed defined as the ratio of stress to strain, indicating a material's stiffness in the elastic region. The other options contain misconceptions about the properties and applications of Young's Modulus.
