Two different materials designated A, and B, are tested in tension using test specimens having diameters of 0.505 cm and gage lengths of 2.0 cm (Figure 1). At failure, the distances between the gauge length marks are 2.13 cm (sample A) and 2.48 cm (sample B). Also, at the failure cross-sections, the diameters are found to be 0.484 cm (sample A) and 0.398 cm (sample B), respectively.

Question
(a)
Two different materials designated A, and B, are tested in tension using test specimens
having diameters of 0.505 cm and gage lengths of 2.0 cm (Figure 1). At failure, the
distances between the gauge length marks are 2.13 cm (sample A) and 2.48 cm (sample
B). Also, at the failure cross-sections, the diameters are found to be 0.484 cm (sample A)
and 0.398 cm (sample B), respectively.
Classify each material as brittle or ductile using your judgement.
