In plotting stress versus strain curves for two materials \(P\) and \(Q\), a student by mistake puts strain on the \(y\)-axis and stress on the \(x\)-axis as shown in the figure. Then the correct statement(s) is(are)

  1. A P has more tensile strength than Q
  2. B P is more ductile than Q
  3. C P is more brittle than Q
  4. D The Young's modulus of P is more than that of Q
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) P is more ductile than Q

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Slope of this graph represents the reciprocal of Young's modulus.
Since slope of P> slope of Q
Hence Y of P<Y of Q
