That depends on the hardness (durometer) of the rubber. It can be quite low and range from 100 psi to over 1000 psi. If it is very thin, then since it is nearly incompressible (poisson ratio approaches 0.5) then the modulus increases to a much higher value, depending on thickness , and can vary from 1000 psi to 10000 psi in general, and approach over 300,000 psi in the limit.

You need to know the dimensions and durometer.

Is tensile modulus the same as young's modulus?

Yes, indeed. Sometimes tensile modulus is different from flexural modulus, especially for composites. But tensile modulus and elastic modulus and Young's modulus are equivalent terms.


What is the relation between elastic modulus and tensile modulus?

The elastic modulus, also called Young's modulus, is identical to the tensile modulus. It relates stress to strain when loaded in tension.

Can bulk modulus be used to find the stress-strain relationship of a material compressed in a single axis?

Yes, if the material is very thin in ther axis of compression. If it is not thin, as in compressing a long cyclinder, you do not need to know bulk modulus. If very thin it won't make a lot of difference if it a metal with usual poisson ratio of about 0.25, but will make difference for possion ratio higher, especially approaching 0.5, as in rubber. In the case of the long cyclinder stress = modulus xstrain In the case of the thin material stress = modulus x strain times the quantity (1-u)/ ((1+u)(1-2u)) where u = poisson ratio; the relation to bulk modulus for u is u =1/2 - E/6B where B = bulk modulus and E = elastic modulus


Modulus of rigidity of rubber?

The modulus of elasticity , E, relates tensile stress to tensile strain The modulus of rigidity, G, relates shear stress to shear strain The bulk modulus, K, relates compressive stress to volume strain The three are related using u, poisson ratio of material, that varies generally from 0 to 0.5 E = 9K/ (1 + 3K/G) G = E/2(1+u) G = 3(1-2u)K/2(1+u)

Is Young's modulus of rubber is greater than steel?

No, Young's modulus of rubber is not greater than that of steel. Young's modulus is a measure of a material's stiffness, and rubber is much more flexible compared to steel. Typically, Young's modulus for rubber ranges from about 0.01 to 0.1 GPa, while for steel, it is around 200 GPa. This significant difference indicates that steel is much stiffer than rubber.

What is the modulus of elasticity of a normal rubber band?

The modulus of elasticity of a normal rubber band is typically around 0.01-0.1 GPa. This property represents the stiffness of the rubber band and its ability to return to its original shape after being stretched.


What is the modulus of elasticity for a rubber band?

The modulus of elasticity for a rubber band is typically around 0.01 to 0.1 GPa, depending on the specific type and composition of the rubber. This means that the rubber band can stretch easily under low stress, but resists deformation under higher stress.


How is young modulus of a material defined?

By rubber, low-density, diatom polyethylene, diatom frustules (largely silicic acid), and PFTE (Teflon).


Is Young's Modulus the same as Modulus of Elasticity?

Is the modulus of elasticity the same as Young's modulus?

Yes, the modulus of elasticity is the same as Young's modulus.


Why are rubbers used as vibration absorber?

Rubber is used as vibration absorbers, because rubber has a relatively high shear modulus compared to other materials. That means when a rubber material is shear stressed, i.e. stressed parallel to its cross-section, rubber can be stressed more before it becomes permanently deformed.


What are the different types of modulus elasticity?

there are different types of modulus it depends on what types of stress is acting on the material if its direct stress then then there is modulus of elasticity,if tis shear stress then its modulus of rigidity and when its volumetric stress it is bulk modulus and so on

Is young's modulus storage modulus?

The Young modulus and storage modulus measure two different things and use different formulas. A storage modulus measures the stored energy in a vibrating elastic material. The Young modulus measures the stress to in still elastic, and it is an elastic modulus.
