Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the Young's modulus for a perfectly rigid body, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Definition of Young's Modulus Young's modulus (Y) is defined as the ratio of tensile stress to longitudinal strain. Mathematically, it can be expressed as: \[ Y = \frac{\text{Tensile Stress}}{\text{Longitudinal Strain}} \] ...
