What is the Young's modulus of elasticity for a perfectly rigid body?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Infinity
Option A (Infinity) is correct because a perfectly rigid body has zero strain for any amount of stress, leading to an infinite Young's modulus.

Statement I: A hollow shaft is found to be stronger than a solid shaft made of same material.
Statement II: The torque required to produce a given twist in hollow cylinder is greater than that required to twist a solid cylinder of same size and material.
Statement II: The torque required to produce a given twist in hollow cylinder is greater than that required to twist a solid cylinder of same size and material.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Statement I is true and statement II is true
Option A (Statement I is true and statement II is true) is correct because a hollow shaft is stronger and requires more torque than a solid shaft of the same size and material.

A: Diamond is more elastic than rubber.
R: When same deforming force is applied diamond deforms less than rubber.
R: When same deforming force is applied diamond deforms less than rubber.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both A R are true and the R is the correct explanation of the A
Option A is correct because diamond is more elastic than rubber, and this is because diamond deforms less than rubber when the same deforming force is applied.
