STANDARD Physics Elasticity MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Let Yₛ and Yₐ represent Young’s modulus for steel and aluminium respectively. It is said that steel is more elastic than aluminium. Therefore, it follows that
A
Yₛ = Yₐ
B
Yₛ < Yₐ
C
Yₛ > Yₐ
D
Yₛ / Yₐ = 0
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
Steel is more elastic than aluminium, which implies that the Young's modulus of steel (Yₛ) is greater than that of aluminium (Yₐ).
