The diagram shows stress v/* 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 & B are ductile
(D) Both A & B are brittle
Correct option: (B) A is ductile and B is brittle
Explanation:
In ductile materials, yield point exists where as in brittle material *** occurs without yielding.
A has yield point hence A is ductile.
B doesn't have yield point hence B is brittle.
