Modulus of rigidity of ideal liquids is

A

infinity

B

zero

C

unity

D

some finite small non-zero constant value

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

As `eta =("shearing stress")/("shearing strain")`
and since liquids cannot the sustain shearing stress ` therefore" " eta = 0` in their case.
