Detailed Solution

Given,

Youngs modulus = 40GPa

rigidity modulus = 20GPa

Young's modulus (Y), shear modulus (G), and bulk modulus (B) are related to one another:

Y=9BG3B+G

Now substituting the values,

40=9B×203B+20

40(3B+20)=180B

120B+800=180B

60B=800

B=80060

B=13.33GPa

Hence the correct answer is 13.33 GPa.
