MCQ
Shear modulus is zero for
  • A
    solids
  • B
    liquids
  • C
    gases
  • liquids and gases

Answer

Correct option: D.
liquids and gases
d
Shear modulus is applicable to solids where deforming force causes change in shape of body. For fluids it is not possible since they have no fixed shape.
