In plotting stress versus strain curves for two material P and Q, a student by mistake puts strain on the y-axis stress on ther x-axis as shown in the figure. Then the correct statement is/are

Options

A. P has more tensile strength than Q
B. P is more ductile than Q
C. P is more brittle than Q
D. The Young’s modulus of P is more than that of Q

Answer

AB

Explanation

`Y=("stress")/("stra in")orYprop(1)/("stra in")`
`("for same stress say" sigma)("stra in")_(Q)lt("strain")_(P)`
So, P is more ductile than Q.
Further, from the given figure we can also see that breaking stress of P is more than Q. So, it has more tensile strength.
