Question

What is a high modulus of elasticity?

Answer 1

1. The ratio of stress to strain is known as the modulus of elasticity.
2. The mathematical expression for modulus of elasticity:
   $$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{modulus}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{elasticity}=\frac{\mathrm{stress}}{\mathrm{strain}} \\ \mathrm{E}=\frac{\mathrm{\sigma }}{\mathrm{\epsilon }} \end{gathered}$$
3. The Modulus of elasticity is the measure of the stiffness of a material.
4. The higher the modulus of elasticity more resistant the material will give to deform the it within the elastic range.
5. Higher the modulus of elasticity stiffer the material is.
