1. The difference in one unit of Rockwell hardness number corresponds to a difference in the depth of indentation of __________ mm.
    (A) 0.001
    (B) 0.01
    (C) 0.002

2. Transformation range for ferrous material is the temperature interval during which __________ is formed during its heating.
    (A) Cementite
    (B) Austenite
    (C) Martensite
    (D) Pearlite

3. Pick out the wrong statement.
    (A) Both annealing and normalizing release the internal stresses of the material besides improving the mechanical properties
    (B) Low carbon steel does not respond to the heat treatment for hardening of the material, hence it is subjected to case hardening or surface hardening processes like cyaniding, carburizing, nitriding etc., which produces high carbon outer layers resulting in increase of surface hardness
