Question

With rise in temperature, the Young's modulus of elasticity :

Accepted Answer

Option C. The Young's modulus of elasticity, denoted as …, is a measure of the stiffness of a material. It defines the relationship between stress (force per unit area) and strain (deformation) in a material in the linear (elastic) portion of the stress-strain curve. As temperature changes, the interatomic distances and bonding energies within a material also change, affecting its mechanical properties, including its elasticity.
