Assertion $(A)$: Ductile metals are used to prepare thin wires.
Reason $(R)$: In the stress-strain curve of ductile metals,the length between the points representing elastic limit and breaking point is very small.

The stress-strain graph of two wires $A$ and $B$ is shown in the figure. If $Y_{A}$ and $Y_B$ are Young's moduli of materials of wires $A$ and $B$ respectively, then

The diagram below shows the change in the length $X$ of a thin uniform wire caused by the application of stress $F$ at two different temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$. The variation shown suggests that

The stress vs. strain curve for the elastic tissue of the aorta,the large tube (vessel) carrying blood from the heart,will be: [Note: Stress is proportional to the square of the strain for the elastic tissue of the aorta.]

The diagram shows a force-extension graph for a rubber band. Consider the following statements:
$I.$ It will be easier to compress this rubber than expand it.
$II.$ Rubber does not return to its original length after it is stretched.
$III.$ The rubber band will get heated if it is stretched and released.
Which of these can be deduced from the graph?
