The stress versus strain graphs for two ...

The stress versus strain graphs for two materials A and B are shown in Figure. ( The graphs are drawn to the same scale) (a) Which material has greater Young's modulus ? (b) Which material is more ductile ? ( c) Which is more brittle ? ( d) Which of the two is the strong material?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Young.s modulus `= ( "Stress")/( "Strain") `= slope of stress - strain graph. Slope is greater inFigure and hence material A has greater Y.
(b) Ductile materials should have highh plastci range so material A is more ductile.
( c ) Brittle material has small plastic region. So material B is brittle.
(d) Strength dependes on the maximum stress that can be applied, so material A is stronger.
