Solution
The correct option is D Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect Young's modulus is only defined for the elastic part of the stress strain curve. So for a plastic body, it won't be defined. Statement 2 is correct as plasticity means original shape is not regained, so regaining force should be zero for a perfectly plastic material.
