Q1:

The ratio of shearing stress to shearing strain within elastic 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:B - shear modulus of elasticity

Ya Modules of Elasticity Means Young's Modulus. Shear Modulus Means Modulus of Rigidity.
