The dimension of Young's Modulus is:

Correct answer: C. ML-1T-2

  • A. M2L-1T2
  • B. ML-1T-1
  • C. ML-1T-2
  • D. ML-2T-2

Explanation

Young's modulus is the slope of the initial section of the curve (i.e. m in y = mx + b). When a material reaches a certain stress, the material will begin to deform. It is up to a point where the structure of the material is stretching and not deforming. Unit of Young's Modulus =N/m2=kgm/s2m2=ms2kg=ML−1T−2.
