At the neutral axis of a beam, the shear stress is zero because shear stress is directly proportional to natural axis. And at the natural axis distance is zero. So option A is correct.

In case of beam shear stress is maximum but in case of torsion shear stress at the neutral axis is zero.

In case of beam, we know;
f = (E/R) * y.
Where f = shear stress, E= youngs modulus, R= radius of curvature and y= distance of layer from the neutral axis.
In this equation E and R are constant for a particular beam and y=0 at neutral axis, therefore, f=0 at the neutral axis.

The shear stress varies parabolically in the beam. It is maximum at the center and zero at fibres. The maximum shear force at neutral axis is given by s = 3F/2bd.

Maximum at center.

Max at center. It is shear stress.

Shear stress is zero where the bending moment is maximum.
