The base units of Young's Modulus are:
Correct answer: A. kg m-1 s-2
- A. kg m-1 s-2
- B. kg m-2 s-2
- C. kg m-3 s-2
- D. kg ms-3
Explanation
The Young modulus is basically the stress over strain where stress is force/area and the strain has no units. Simplifying the units of Force, N would give us kg ms-2. Dividing it by m2 of the area would give us kg s-2m-1 so, the answer is A.
