A single number describing how stiff a material is — steel's is far higher than rubber's.
Young's modulus measures how much a material resists elastic deformation (stiffness), not how much load it can take before breaking (strength) — a material can be very stiff but still brittle and prone to snapping, like glass.
This calculation assumes the material is still behaving elastically (it would spring back to its original shape if unloaded) — beyond a material's yield point, the stress-strain relationship stops being linear and this simple ratio no longer describes its behavior.
Young's modulus (Pa)
5,000,000,000
E = σ / ε
What you entered
E = σ ÷ ε
10000000 ÷ 0.002= 5.0000e+9 PaResult
Young's modulus (Pa): 5,000,000,000
A stress of 10000000 Pa producing a strain of 0.002 gives a Young's modulus of 5,000,000,000 Pa.
