Question

A sphere is cut by a plane at the middle the plane is perpendicular to both reference planes the top view and front view will be _____________

(a) line, circle

(b) circle, line

(c) line, line

(d) circle, circle

I had been asked this question in my homework.

The above asked question is from Sections of Spheres in division Section of Solids of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

The correct answer is (c) line, line

To explain I would say: Given the plane is perpendicular to both the reference planes so the plane is parallel to picture plane so the section would also be parallel to picture plane as the section is a 2D figure the other view will give line obviously.
