Assertion (A): High-strength alloys are not always preferred for damage-tolerant structure.

Reason (R): Fracture toughness tends to fall as alloy strength rises.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • 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 statements are true and the second is the reason for the first. A lower toughness means a smaller critical crack, and therefore a shorter inspection interval, so the strongest alloy is frequently not the best choice for a tension surface.
