21.
Which of the following statement is wrong?
In the theory of simple bending, the assumption is that the plane sections before bending remains plane after bending.
In a beam subjected to bending moment, the strain is directly proportional to the distance from the neutral axis.
At the neutral axis of a beam, the bending stress is maximum.
The bending stress in a beam is inversely proportional to the section modulus.
Answer: Option

Answer is D because by using flexural formula it is found that stress is inversely proportional to section modules.

Neutral axis bending stress will be zero, but shear stress will be maximum.
