There is _________ for a brittle material.
| There is _________ for a brittle material.
A. no elastic zone
B. no plastic zone
C. large elastic zone
D. large plastic zone
Please scroll down to see the correct answer and solution guide.
Right Answer is: B
SOLUTION
Elastic and plastic zones can be understood from the stress-strain curve.
Stress-strain curve for brittle material is given below
It can be seen from the graph that there is no plastic region for the brittle material.
This can be clearly seen from the figure that there is both elastic and plastic region in the case of ductile material while in the case of brittle material it was absent.
