In cold working of metal as compared to its hot working____________________?

Correct answer: C. Appreciable strain hardening is produced

  • A. Cracks and blow holes are eliminated
  • B. Ductility and impact strength improves
  • C. Appreciable strain hardening is produced
  • D. Yield stress, hardness and fatigue strength is not at all affected

Explanation

Cold working plastically deforms metal below its recrystallisation temperature, generating dislocations that cause appreciable strain hardening. Consequently, strength and hardness rise while ductility generally decreases.
