Best Answer

Stress is often considered to be outcome or consequences of adversity (in this case social presure, physixcal, financial and so on) that we encounter during our life daily life and it is our respond to the adversity. Pressure may cause stress or/and be antecedent for other psychopathologies, if it excceeds our coping resource. So presure causes stress, and stress in ture may negatively contribute to our perception of on-going-presure and so on. We feel presure, think about, and perceive it. Stress is our response to what we perceive.

Stress refers to the physical and emotional response to a demanding or challenging situation, while pressure refers to the external demands or expectations placed on an individual. Stress is an internal reaction, whereas pressure is an external factor. Pressure can lead to stress, but not all stress is a result of pressure.

Is pressure drop the same as pressure differential?

is pressure the same as stress ? Stress is merely related to physical or mental tension which may be a result of pressure exerted to a material or a person. So pressure may cause stress and is not the same. Pressure drop is the same as differential pressure as normally applied to measure the condition of a filter system. *** Not it is not The more scientific definitions are:- Pressure: compressive force acting on an area, expressed in units of force per unit of area, e.g. 1Pascal = 1 newton/metre (force) per square metre (area). Pressure differential: change Differential to the more grammatically and mathematically correct Difference and there's the definition - difference between two pressures in a system. Stress: force acting on an area, as above, but may be compressive or tensile. Psychological stress is another matter, and most speakers use the word "stress" without knowing its proper meaning when talking of personal problems. Strain: the change in shape of a medium under stress; e.g. compression of rubber or a gas, or the change in length of a spring under load.
