Assertion (A): A tapered wing box carries less web shear than a prismatic analysis suggests.
Reason (R): The inclined spar caps have transverse components that relieve part of the shear.
Select the correct answer from the options below.
Answer: D
Both are true and the second explains the first. The relief can amount to a significant fraction near the root where the caps are most heavily loaded, so treating a tapered box as prismatic is conservative but wasteful.
