Hence, the Modulus of rigidity is the ratio of shear stress (F/A) to the shear strain (l/l).
F is the force acting on the object.
A is the area on which the force is acting.
l is the longitudinal displacement.
l is the initial length.
Working Formula:
If a light bar of breadth b and depth d is placed horizontally and two knife edges separated by
a distance L , and a load of mass m , applied at the midpoint of the beam, produces a
depression l of the beam, then the Young’s Modulus is given by,

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity in meter /sec2 , L is measured in meter ; b , d and
l are also measured in meter ; m in kgm and Y is calculated in Newton / meter 2 .

x1 the depression of the point at a distance d0 from the midpoint after applying a mass M at
the midpoint.
The Shear force at a point on the beam is given by,
