Why was the crack an effect of tension and not compression stress?
A crack is caused by tension not compression because tension pulls matter apart while compression pushes matter together
How does convection within earth create landscapes?
It moves plates and causes compression and tension as well as the movement of magma.
Where do tension and compression occur on each type of bridge?
In bridges, tension and compression forces occur at different locations depending on the type. In beam bridges, tension is found in the lower section of the beam, while compression occurs in the upper section. Arch bridges primarily experience compression along the arch, with tension at the supports. Suspension bridges have tension in the cables and compression in the towers, with the deck experiencing bending forces that result in both tension and compression.
What are the five forces that act upon bridges?
1.compression 2.tension 3.torsion 4.shear 5.gravity
What is the neeed of extensometer?
it is used to measure the extension or compression in the object after it is subjected to tension or compression test it is used to measure the extension or compression in the object after it is subjected to tension or compression test
Is tension and compression a force?
Tension and compression are not forces themselves, but rather types of forces that act on objects. Tension is a force that pulls or stretches an object, while compression is a force that pushes or squeezes an object. Both tension and compression are common forces in structural mechanics.
How does compression and tension work when a diving board goes up and down?
When a diver jumps on a diving board, their weight creates tension in the board as it bends downward. This tension is the force that tries to stretch the board, while compression occurs in the lower part of the board as it is pushed together. When the board reaches its lowest point, the stored elastic potential energy is released, causing the board to spring back upward, converting the tension into upward motion. This interplay of tension and compression allows the board to propel the diver into the air.
What is the difference between tension and compression structures?
compression zone is an positive zone,tension zone is an negative zone..
What is the relationship between compression and tension?
Compression and tension are two types of stress that can act on a material. Compression occurs when forces push inward on the material, while tension occurs when forces pull outward on the material. In the context of structures, compression and tension often work together to maintain stability and strength.
What is tension and compression?
Tension and compression takes place when an object has a force on another object. The tension is when the force is causing a pulling effect on part of the object. The compression is when the force is causing a contracting effect on part of the object.
What is the roadbed?
it protects from tension and compression
Which are associated with solids?
tension and compression
