The diagram shoes stress v/s strain curve for the materials A and B. From the curves we infer that

A

A is brittle but B is ductile

B

A is ductile and B is brittle

C

Both A and B are ductile

D

Both A and B are brittle

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In ductile materials, yield point exist whil in Brittle material, failure would occur without yielding.
