2. Which of the following is not a laminar composite?
a) Bimetallic
b) Cladding
c) Paints
d) Wood
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: Wood is not a laminar composite. Bimetallic, cladding and paints are considered as laminar composites.

3. The composite constituents of both matrix and reinforcements are softer.
a) True
