We know that Young's Modulus is the ratio of stress and strain. But, for a perfectly rigid body, the strain is zero, since there are no change in dimensions. Hence, for a perfectly rigid body, the Young's Modulus is undefined. Stress/Strain=Stress/0=undefined (For a perfectly rigid body).

Infinite.because there will be no strain for a perfectly rigid body.so stress/strain equals young module.here strain /zero ,any value decided by zero is infinite.hope u clear the idea.

If the body is perfectly rigid, then strain would be zero whatever the stress & it's not a practical thing ( to be a perfectly rigid body). so, E=stress/strain E= stress/0, therefore we can say the value of E would be infinite for the perfectly rigid body.

we know that young modulus =Stress/strain and A rigid body is defined as one manifesting zero strain regardless of applied stress so Y=stress/0 Y= infinite (because any number devived by zero is infinite, 1/0= infinite)

If force is acting on a moving body perpendicular to the direction of motion, then what will be its effect on the speed and direction of the body?
The magnitude of velocity shall decrease and direction shall be same till it comes to rest, afterwards it shall move in direction of force with acceleration due to the applied force.
