Define modulus of rigidity and bulk Modulus.

1 Answer

Answer :

Bulk Modulus (K): When a body is subjected to three mutually perpendicular like stresses of same intensity then the ratio of direct stress and the corresponding volumetric strain of the body is constant and is known as Bulk Modulus. 

Modulus of rigidity (G): It is ratio of shear stress to shear strain, is called as Modulus of Rigidity.
