Detailed Solution

A body regains its original shape after removal of external force , by virtue of elasticity.Elasticity and elastic limit both are properties of material, not of the body.

Modulus of rigidity for liquid and gases is zero.so shear stress is not possible in liquid and gases.

Bulk modulus (K) = - ΔP / (ΔV/V)

If K = 0 , Δv will be infinity.

Hence option - (4) is right.
