Assertion (A): A designer needs the Weibull modulus of a ceramic as well as its mean strength.
Reason (R): The stress that can be tolerated at an acceptable failure probability depends on the scatter.

  • A.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • B.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • C.A is true but R is false
  • D.A is false but R is true

Answer: A

Both are true and the reason gives the necessity: two materials of identical mean strength differ greatly in the stress that can be carried safely if one has a much wider distribution than the other. Design stress falls steeply as the modulus drops.
