In materials like aluminium and copper, the correct order of magnitude of various elastic moduli is:

  • A
    Young's modulus < shear modulus < bulk modulus
  • B
    Bulk modulus < shear modulus < Young's modulus
  • C
    Shear modulus < Young's modulus < bulk modulus
  • D
    Bulk modulus < Young's modulus < shear modulus
