Given below are two statements : One is labelled as, Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)
Assertion (A) : The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring.
Reason (R) : A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of same dimensions.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most, appropriate answer from the options given below
Assertion (A) : The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring.
Reason (R) : A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of same dimensions.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most, appropriate answer from the options given below
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
(A) is true but (R) is false
Option D ((A) is true but (R) is false) is correct because the stretching of a spring is indeed determined by the shear modulus, but copper does not have more tensile strength than steel.
