Young’s modulus

Young’s modulus, also known as the modulus of elasticity, is a measure of the stiffness of a material. It is defined as the ratio of stress to strain within the elastic limit of the material. In other words, it measures the amount of stress required to produce a certain amount of strain in a material.…

Heat Capacity

Heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius or one Kelvin. It is a physical property of a substance that measures its ability to store heat energy. Heat capacity is usually denoted by the symbol “C” and has units of joules per degree…
