MCQ
The dimensions of shear modulus are
  • A
    $ML{T^{ - 1}}$
  • B
    $M{L^2}{T^{ - 2}}$
  • $M{L^{ - 1}}{T^{ - 2}}$
  • D
    $ML{T^{ - 2}}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$M{L^{ - 1}}{T^{ - 2}}$
c
(c) Shear modulus = $\frac{{{\rm{Shearing\, stress}}}}{{{\rm{Shearing\, strain }}}}$ $ = \frac{F}{{A\theta }} $ $= [M{L^{ - 1}}{T^{ - 2}}]$
