    The stress versus strain graphs for wires of two materials A and B are as shown in the figure. If\[{{Y}_{A}}\]and\[{{Y}_{B}}\]are the Youngs modulus of the materials, then:

    A)  \[{{Y}_{B}}=2{{Y}_{A}}\]                              

    B)  \[{{Y}_{A}}={{Y}_{B}}\]

    C)         \[{{Y}_{B}}=3{{Y}_{A}}\]              

    D)         \[{{Y}_{A}}=3{{Y}_{B}}\]

    E)  \[{{Y}_{B}}=\frac{1}{3}{{Y}_{A}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[Y=\frac{stress}{strain}=\]slope of the graph\[=\tan \theta \] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{Y}_{A}}}{{{Y}_{B}}}=\frac{\tan 60{}^\circ }{\tan 30{}^\circ }=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{1/\sqrt{3}}=3\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{Y}_{A}}=3{{Y}_{B}}\]
