Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 11

Assertion (A): Young's modulus is a measure of the stiffness of a material. | Reason (R): Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain within the elastic limit of a material.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false but R is true.

Correct Answer
