(A) False. The shear modulus of a liquid is zero because liquids cannot sustain shear stress.
$(b)$ False. Rubber has a lower Young's modulus than steel,meaning for a given load,rubber undergoes more deformation than steel.
$(c)$ True. Mechanical processes like beating or rolling,and thermal processes like heating or cooling,can alter the internal structure of a material,thereby affecting its elastic properties.

Explain longitudinal stress.

$A$ lift of mass $1600 \text{ kg}$ is supported by a thick iron wire. If the maximum stress which the wire can withstand is $4 \times 10^8 \text{ N/m}^2$ and its radius is $4 \text{ mm}$, then the maximum acceleration the lift can take is . . . . . . $\text{m/s}^2$. (Take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$ and $\pi = 3.14$)

The value of tension in a long thin metal wire has been changed from $T_{1}$ to $T_{2}$. The lengths of the metal wire at two different values of tension $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ are $l_{1}$ and $l_{2}$ respectively. The actual length of the metal wire is:
