Use formula PL/AE.

Elastic section modulus for rectangular beam is S = b*h^2/6.

It would be 8 times.

Elastic strength directly proportional to section modulus. So the answer is B.

Answer c is correct.
z = b.h^2/12 ; h = 2h(supstitute it).
z = b.(2h)^2/12;
z = 4(b.h^2/12);
Then finally, z = 4(z).
z = b.h^2/12 ; h = 2h(supstitute it).
z = b.(2h)^2/12;
z = 4(b.h^2/12);
Then finally, z = 4(z).

Z = I/y.
I = bd^3/12.
Y = d/2.
Za = bd^2/6.
But in Zb depth is double so d = 2d.
Zb = (b*(2d)^3/12)/d/2.
Zb = 2bd^2/3,
Za/Zb = 4,
I = bd^3/12.
Y = d/2.
Za = bd^2/6.
But in Zb depth is double so d = 2d.
Zb = (b*(2d)^3/12)/d/2.
Zb = 2bd^2/3,
Za/Zb = 4,

Does elastic section modulus refer as elastic strength?

Agree @Yallu.
It will be Za/Zb=1/4.
It will be Za/Zb=1/4.

Is it same section modulus and elastic Strength? Please tell me.
