Question:
Young's modulus is inversely proportional to Temperature. Metals are good conductors of heat and temperature. Then how do Metals have Larger value of Young's modulus?
Answer:

 

Young's modulus (Y), which is a measure of a material's stiffness or elastic behavior, is indeed inversely proportional to temperature. As temperature increases, Young's modulus typically decreases for most materials, including metals. This relationship is described by the concept of thermal expansion, where materials tend to expand and become less stiff as they are heated.
