Question

Assertion (A): When a component is subjected to fluctuating stresses, Goodman line is more safe from design considerations.
Reason (R): Goodman line is completely inside the Gerber parabola and inside the failure points.

• A. Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
• B. Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
• C. (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
• D. (A) is not correct but (R) is correct

Hint:

Goodman line = conservative design; Gerber = more accurate but less safe.
