Question

slope of stress-strain curve in elastic deformation region is a. Plastic modulus b. Poisson's ratio c. Elastic modulus d. None the these a) all of these

Answer 1

c) Elastic Modulus

Step-by-step explanation

As we know that when deformation is under elastic limit then stress applied to the given material is proportional to the strain developed in it

So here we can say that since they both are directly proportional to each other so the proportionality constant here is known as Modulus of elasticity.

So we can say it is given as

`stress = E (strain)`

so now if we draw a graph between between stress and strain then it must be a straight line and the the slope of this straight line is given as

`Slope = (Stress)/(Strain)`

So here correct answer will be

c) Elastic Modulus
