Ultrasonic testing is done in materials to determine

  • A.Cracks below the surface
  • B.Yield strength
  • C.Hardness
  • D.Ultimate tensile strength

Answer: A

Ultrasonic testing is used to find cracks below the surface.

A probe sends high-frequency sound waves into the material. A crack, void or inclusion inside reflects part of the wave back, and the echo's timing shows how deep the flaw lies. It is a non-destructive test, widely used on welds, castings, forgings and rails.

Yield strength and ultimate tensile strength are measured destructively, by pulling a specimen in a tensile test. Hardness is measured by indentation tests such as Brinell, Rockwell or Vickers.
