Question

How does the elastic modulus, Eu, can be determined?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Elastic modulus is also called as modulus of elasticity, it is the ratio of stress upon the longitudinal strain. The elastic modulus of an object can also be defined as it is the slope of its stress-strain curve in the elastic deformation region. The unit of elastic modulus is Pascal (Pa).
