Assertion (A): Fractography is a routine part of ceramic failure investigation.
Reason (R): The fracture surface records where the failure began and what flaw started it.

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

Answer: D

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason gives the value of the technique. The fracture surface carries markings - the mirror, mist and hackle regions - that radiate from the origin, so the origin can be located and the flaw at it identified: a pore, an inclusion, an agglomerate, a machining scratch. Naming the flaw names the process step that produced it, which is what turns a failure into a correction.
