The stress-strain graphs for two materials are: (assume same scale).

 

1. Material (ii) is more elastic than material (i) and hence, material (ii) is more brittle.

2. Material (i) and (ii) have the same elasticity and the same brittleness.

3. Material (i) is elastic over a larger region of strain as compared to (ii).

4. Material (ii) is more brittle than material (i).
