Q. Identify the correct statement (Solved)
1. A metal which is brittle in tension may be ductile under hydrostatic compression
2. All materials undergo plastic deformation
3. In elastic materials yield stress and tensile strength are practically identical
4. A completely brittle material would not fracture at elastic limit
5. Brittleness is an important engineering consideration, because it allows the materials to redistribute localized stresses
- a. A metal which is brittle in tension may be ductile under hydrostatic compression
