Q1:

The ratio of longitudinal stress to strain within eiastic limit, is known as

A modulus of elasticity

B shear modulus of elasticity

C bulk modulus of elasticity

D tangent modulus of elasticity

E all the above.

ANS:A - modulus of elasticity

Tangent modulus of elasticity is the slope of stress strain curve at any specified stress or strain.
