A
\(\frac{stress}{strain}\)
B
\(\frac{strain}{stress}\)
C
\(stress \times strain\)
D

Verified Correct Answer: A.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Elastic modulus is the ratio of pressure (stress) applied to a body to the resistance (strain) produced by the body.
= \(\frac{stress}{strain}\)
