The diagram shows stress versus strain curve for the materials \(A\) and \(B\). From the curves, we can infer that

  1. A \(A\) is brittle but \(B\) is ductile
  2. B \(A\) is ductile but \(B\) is brittle
  3. C Both \(A\) and \(B\) are ductile
  4. D Both \(A\) and \(B\) are brittle
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(A\) is ductile but \(B\) is brittle

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to stress-strain curve, we see that for same value of applied stress, strain produced is more in material \(B\) than in material \(A\) in linear region. Therefore, \(A\) is ductile but \(B\) is brittle. In ductile materials, yield point exists whereas in brittle…
