Two wires of the same material have equal lengths but `A` is thicker than other `B`. Which of the two has greater value of Young's modulus?

A

`A`

B

`B`

C

same for `A` and `B`

D

cant perdict

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Young's modulus does not depend on length or cross-section area of the wire but it depends on property of the material.
