Stress-strain curve for four metals are shown in figure. The maximum Young's modulus of elasticity is for metal

A

A

B

B

C

C

D

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) As, `Y=("Stress")/("Strain")`
`therefore` Slope of strain and stress graph `=(1)/(y)`
`therefore` A has maximum young modulus of elasticity as its slope is minimum.
