NEET · Physics · STD 11- 8. mechanical properties of solids
Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion \((A)\) and the other is labelled as Reason \((R)\). Assertion \((A)\):The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring. Reason \((R)\):A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of same dimensions. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- A Both \((A)\) and \((R)\) are true and \((R)\) is not the correct explanation of \((A)\)
- B \((A)\) is true but \((R)\) is false
- C \((A)\) is false but \((R)\) is true
- D Both \((A)\) and \((R)\) are true and \((R)\) is the correct explanation of \((A)\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \((A)\) is true but \((R)\) is false
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In stretching of a spring shape charges therefore shear modulus is used. \(Y _{\text {copper }}< Y _{\text {stoel }}\)
