So is there a difference between options A and B?

Himanshu said:   9 years ago
Shear modulus of elasticity is a coefficient of elasticity of a substance, expressing the ratio between the force per unit area (shearing stress) that laterally deforms the substance and the shear (shearing strain) that is produced by this force.

Sharad said:   10 years ago
Shear modulus or modulus of rigidity μ is defined as the ratio of shear stress to the shear strain.
