Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)

Assertion (A) :

The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring.

Reason (R) :

A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of the same dimensions.

In light of the above statements choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Option: 1

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)


Option: 2

(A) is true but (R) is false

(A) is false but (R) is ture


Option: 4

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)

\rightarrow During stretching of spring, as the shape of spring is changed. Therefore, we say

     that shear modulus determines that.

\rightarrow Y_{\text {steel }}>Y_{\text {copper }}\left ( \text { Tensile \text { Strength } }\alpha Y \right )

\therefore Assertion is true but reason is not true

The correct option is 2.
