Directions: The following item consist of two statements one labeled as ‘Assertion A’ and the other labeled as ‘Reason R’. You are to examine these two statements carefully and decide if the Assertion A and the Reason R are individually true and if so whether the reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion. Select your answers to these items using the codes given below and mark your answer sheet accordingly.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
(b) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
(c) A is true but R is false
(d) A is false but R is true
Assertion (A): Piezoelectric transducers are preferred over strain gauge transducers in the dynamometers for measurement of 3-D cutting forces
Reason (R): In elastic transducers there is a significant leakage of signal from one axis to the other such cross error is negligible in the case of piezoelectric transducers
