(N/A) The ratio of stress to strain is called the modulus of elasticity.
It depends on the characteristics of the material but does not depend on the dimensions of the material.
There are three types of modulus of elasticity:
$(i)$ Young's modulus $(Y)$
$(ii)$ Bulk modulus $(B)$ and its reciprocal,Compressibility $(k)$
$(iii)$ Shear modulus or modulus of rigidity $(G)$
