Question:medium

Given below are two statements
Statement I: The stage at which the change of shape of material becomes more rapid than the increase of force is called 'yield point'.
Statement II: After yield point the change of shape is permanent
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

Show Hint

Visualize the stress-strain curve. The initial straight-line part is the elastic region. The 'yield point' is where the curve flattens out or drops slightly, indicating large strain for a small change in stress. Everything beyond this point is the plastic region, where deformation is permanent.
