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)

$(A)$ $P$ has more tensile strength than $Q$

$(B)$ $P$ is more ductile than $Q$

$(C)$ $P$ is more brittle than $Q$

$(D)$ The Young's modulus of $P$ is more than that of $Q$

  • A$(A,B)$
  • B$(A,C)$
  • C$(B,C)$
  • D$(B,D)$
