Physics Properties Matching Solution

This question requires matching physical properties of materials (List I) with their corresponding mathematical expressions (List II).

Matching Process:

  • A. Young's Modulus: Represents stiffness, defined as longitudinal stress divided by longitudinal strain. The formula is $E = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} = \frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L} = \frac{FL}{A(\Delta L)}$. This matches expression II.
  • B. Compressibility: Defined as the relative change in volume per unit increase in pressure. It is the inverse of Bulk Modulus. The formula is $\beta = -\frac{1}{V} (\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta P})$. Expression III, $-\frac{1}{\Delta P} (\frac{\Delta V}{V})$, is equivalent to this.
  • C. Bulk Modulus: Measures resistance to uniform compression. It's defined as the ratio of pressure change to the relative volume change: $K = -\frac{\Delta P}{(\Delta V/V)} = -\frac{V(\Delta P)}{\Delta V}$. Expression IV, $-P(\frac{V}{\Delta V})$, represents this quantity, possibly under the assumption that $\Delta P \approx P$.
  • D. Poisson's Ratio: The ratio of transverse strain to axial strain. Mathematically, $\nu = -\frac{\epsilon_{transverse}}{\epsilon_{axial}} = -\frac{(\Delta d/d)}{(\Delta L/L)} = -\frac{\Delta d}{\Delta L}(\frac{L}{d})$. Expression I, $\frac{\Delta d}{\Delta L} (\frac{L}{d})$, matches this, potentially omitting the negative sign common in the definition.

Conclusion

Based on the standard definitions and common representations in physics problems:

  • Young's Modulus (A) matches with II.
  • Compressibility (B) matches with III.
  • Bulk Modulus (C) matches with IV.
  • Poisson's Ratio (D) matches with I.

Therefore, the correct matching is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I.

This corresponds to Option 1.
