Q: The modulus of elasticity of steel is more than of concrete. It indicates that steel is:
  • A. Less elastic
  • B. More elastic
  • C. More plastic
  • D. Less plastic
Correct Answer: Option B - Modulus of elasticity is direct measure of elasticity. Higher the modulus of elasticity of a material higher will be the elasticity of same material. So steel is more elastic than concrete.
B. Modulus of elasticity is direct measure of elasticity. Higher the modulus of elasticity of a material higher will be the elasticity of same material. So steel is more elastic than concrete.

Explanations:

Modulus of elasticity is direct measure of elasticity. Higher the modulus of elasticity of a material higher will be the elasticity of same material. So steel is more elastic than concrete.
