Question
The stress versus strain graphs for two materials A and B are shown below:

(The graphs are to the same scale).

  1. Which material has greater Young's modulus?
  2. Which material is more ductile?
  3. Which is more brittle?

Answer

  1. A, because for producing the same strain, more stress is required in case of the material A.
  2. A, because it has a greater plastic range.
  3. B, because it has a lesser plastic range.
