The modulus of elasticity refers to the material's capacity to withstand or resist deformation when stress is applied. There are three types of the modulus of elasticity including:
Young’s Modulus (E): It is used to measure a solid's elasticity when longitudinal stress (tensile or compressive) is applied to it. Mathematically, it is represented by the following formula;
SI Unit is N/m² (Pascal, Pa).
Bulk Modulus (K): It is used to measure the ability of the material to resist volume change when uniform pressure is applied to it. Mathematically, it is:
Shear Modulus (G) or Modulus of Rigidity: It is used

Class 11 Physics Chapter 11 is Thermodynamics. It is one of the most important topic in Physics.
There are three main processes Isothermal, adiabatic and cyclic process. In isothermal, the system is thermally conductive and the temperature remains constant. In adiabatic process, the system is thermally isolated and there is no change in heat temperature. The system returns to its initial stage in the cyclic process.
