The diagram shows a force-extension graph for a rubber band. Consider the following statements

$I.$ It will be easier to compress this rubber than expand it

$II.$ Rubber does not return to its original length after it is stretched

$III.$ The rubber band will get heated if it is stretched and released

Which of these can be deduced from the graph

  • A$III$ only
  • B$II$ and $III$
  • C$I$ and $III$
  • D$I$ only

    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:
