Step 1
Young's modulus (E) is a measure of the stiffness of a material. It is defined as the ratio of stress (σ) to strain (ε) within the elastic limit of the material. The formula to calculate Young's modulus is E = σ/ε. Show more…

Figure shows the strain-stress curve for a given material. The Young's modulus of the material is (a) $5 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$ (b) $5 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$ (c) $7.5 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$ (d) $7.5 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$
A soft material is placed within the confines of a rigid cylinder which rests on a rigid support. Assuming that $\boldsymbol{\epsilon}_{x}=0$ and $\boldsymbol{\epsilon}_{y}=0,$ determine the factor by which the modulus of elasticity will be increased when a load is applied if $\nu=0.3$ for the material.
