Young's modulus is the property of

  • A.Gas only
  • B.Both Solid and Liquid
  • C.Liquid only
  • D.Solid only

Answer: D

Young's modulus is a property of solids only.

\[Y = \frac{\text{longitudinal stress}}{\text{longitudinal strain}}\] It measures resistance to a change in length, and only a solid has a definite length to change. Fluids have no shape of their own and so have no Young's modulus or rigidity modulus; they do have a bulk modulus.
