I will also go with the 1st option i.e, same. Because elastic strength means section modulus and it does not depend upon length.

The right answer is A because elastic strength Z. Doesn't depend on Length.
z = bd2/6.
Same is answer.
z = bd2/6.
Same is answer.

If length, width are remains same and depth is double that of A then what's the elastic strength of B?

If length increase moment increase if moment double bending becomes double and strength becomes half.

(PL/AE)a * (PL/AE)b.
Now increase the length by 2 in b.
(PL/AE)a * (2PL/AE)b.
(a/b)=(1/2),
b = 2a.
Now increase the length by 2 in b.
(PL/AE)a * (2PL/AE)b.
(a/b)=(1/2),
b = 2a.

σ1= M/z1=w*l/z,
σ2= M/z2=w*(2*l,)
Z1=z2 as b,d are same.
So, σ1/σ2 = 1/2.
σ2= M/z2=w*(2*l,)
Z1=z2 as b,d are same.
So, σ1/σ2 = 1/2.

Strength of beam can be calculated by formula R = 1.5PL/bh^2.
Hence right answer.
Hence right answer.

Flexural strength (σ)= (3FL)/(2*bd^2), what about this? Please explain.

@Usha.
Elastic strength of beam with double Length will be double not half.
Elastic strength of beam with double Length will be double not half.

Can Anyone explain What Is Elastic Strength?
And how can we find it?
