for an isotropic media you can divide the force on every element in two components.

-bulk component

-rigid component

now bulk component is associated with bulk modulus and other is associated with modulus of rigidity(written as meu).

now bulk component is the one which causes the matter to get compressed and the rigid component only changes the shape of the volume. now, water do not get compressed, it is incompressible and that's why the the force on it is affected by only the rigid component. thats why the modulus of rigidity is zero.

What is the value of the modulus of rigidity of the wire?

The modulus of rigidity of a wire is a measure of its resistance to shearing deformation. It is typically represented by the symbol G and is expressed in units of pascals (Pa). The specific value of the modulus of rigidity for a given wire will depend on its material composition and properties.
