Young’s modulus or Modulus of elasticity (E) Shear modulus or Modulus of Rigidity (G) Bulk modulus (K) You are required to submit a report explaining these elastic constants and explaining the relations between these elastic constants. (You can use the relation with Poisson’s Ratio and get the relation between E, G and K.)
When an external force acts on a body, the body tends to undergo some deformation. If the external force is removed and the body comes back to its origin shape and size, the body is known as elastic body. This property, by virtue of which certain materials return back to their original position after the removal of the external force, is called elasticity. We can explain these behaviours using following elastic constants.
Young’s modulus or Modulus of elasticity (E)
Shear modulus or Modulus of Rigidity (G)
Bulk modulus (K)
You are required to submit a report explaining these elastic constants and explaining the relations between these elastic constants. (You can use the relation with Poisson’s Ratio and get the relation between E, G and K.)
