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)

Why is only the speed of light constant in all frames of reference?

The only thing that affects the speed of light is the refractive index of the medium through which it moves, and for space, this number is 1.000000 and gives you the maximum possible speed of light.
