Which of the following is NOT true of the section modulus?
Answer: A
Correct answer: It has units of length to the fourth power
The section modulus is \( I/y \), which is length to the fourth divided by length - so its units are length cubed. That is precisely what makes it a modulus rather than a second moment, and it is why dividing the applied moment by it gives a stress.
