MCQ
The units of modulus of rigidity are
- A$N - m$
- B$N/m$
- C$N - {m^2}$
- ✓$N/{m^2}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$N/{m^2}$
d
We know that the modulus of rigidity is defined as:
We know that the modulus of rigidity is defined as:
$Y =\frac{\text { Stress }}{\text { Strain }}$
Since strain is a dimensionless quantity. So its unit will be same as that of stress.
