Elastic Modulie
Question

Consider the following statements:
(i) Young's modulus is numerically equal to the stress which will double the length of a wire.
(ii) Viscosity of gases is greater than that of liquids.
(iii) The surface tension of a liquid decreases due to the presence of insoluble contamination.
The number of above statements that are true is

Moderate
Solution

(i), (iii) are true but (ii) is false as we know that viscosity in gases is about 100 times less than viscosity in liquids.
