It is useful to have a property of a material that is independent of the size of the sample and can be use to compare its elastic properties with another - this is called the Modulus of Elasticity for the material.

The modulus of elasticity is defined as:

Modulus of elasticity = Stress / Strain

There are three types of moduli. They are :

(a) the Young Modulus - tensile and compression longitudinal stress

(b) the shear modulus - a shearing stress

(c) the bulk modulus - volume changes of the specimen.

The storage capacity is measured in bytes, kilo bytes, mega bytes, giga bytes and tera bytes. The largest unit of storage is Tera bytes.

The intensity of Earthquakes is measured on Mercalli scale.
