It is the modulus of elasticity. This means it is a number which represents how easy it is to deform (stretch a material).When a material is stretched stress is directly proportional to strain provided it is not stretched beyond the limit of proportionality. The gradient of the graph below gives us the value of the Young Modulus for that particular material. young modulus equation 1
