Relation between young's modulus or Modulus of Elasticity(E), Rigidity modulus(G) and Poisson's ratio(u).
E = 2G(1+u).
=> G = E/[2(1+u)]
=> G = 200/2.5
=> G = 80 GN/m^2

As we know that modulus of rigidity =E/3 , hence when you divide 200/3 ...you get 66.66...so it nearer to 80 hence option A is correct.... by this way you always get an approximate answer.... so option A is correct

The Modulus of Rigidity
The modulus of rigidity, also known as shear modulus, is a measure of a material's resistance to shearing deformation. It is denoted by the symbol G and is defined as the ratio of shear stress to shear strain.
Modulus of Elasticity
The modulus of elasticity, also known as Young's modulus, is a measure of a material's stiffness or ability to resist deformation under tensile or compressive forces. It is denoted by the symbol E and is defined as the ratio of stress to strain.
Poisson's Ratio
Poisson's ratio is a measure of the relative contraction or expansion of a material in the directions perpendicular to the applied load. It is denoted by the symbol ν (nu) and is defined as the ratio of lateral strain to longitudinal strain.
Relationship between Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of Rigidity
There is a mathematical relationship between the modulus of elasticity (E), modulus of rigidity (G), and Poisson's ratio (ν):
E = 2G(1 + ν)
This relationship holds true for isotropic materials, which have the same properties in all directions.
Given Information
Modulus of Elasticity (E) = 200 GN/m²
Poisson's Ratio (ν) = 0.25
Calculation
Using the relationship between E, G, and ν:
E = 2G(1 + ν)
We can rearrange the equation to solve for G:
G = E / (2(1 + ν))
Substituting the given values:
G = 200 GN/m² / (2(1 + 0.25))
G = 200 GN/m² / (2.5)
G = 80 GN/m²
Conclusion
Therefore, the modulus of rigidity for the given material is 80 GN/m², which corresponds to option 'A'.
