When an elastic material with Young’s modulus Y is subjected to stretching stress S, elastic energy stored per unit volume of the material is
-
- YS/2
- S²Y/2
- S²/2Y
- S/2Y
Correct Option: C
Energy stored per unit volume =
= | × stress × strain | |
2 |
= | × stress × (stress/ Young's modulus) | |
2 |
= | × stress²/ (Young's modulus) | |
2 |
= | × stress²/ (Young's modulus) | |
2Y |
