Elasticity is a type of strain that is recoverable, it is not a force. However it is caused by an imposed force which generates a stress below the yield strength of a material.
If the force is pulling or stretching a material it is known as a tensile force or stress.
What else can I help you with?
An elastic force that stretches or pulls on the molecules in matter is?
An elastic force that stretches or pulls on the molecules in matter is known as tension. This force occurs when an object is being stretched or pulled in opposite directions.
What is elastic force that stretches or pulls matter called?
Tension. The force itself is not elastic, but the material being pulled may be.
What is the elastic forces that stretches or pulls matter?
Elasticity is a type of strain that is recoverable, it is not a force. However it is caused by an imposed force which generates a stress below the yield strength of a material. If the force is pulling or stretching a material it is known as a tensile force or stress.
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the crust of the earth?
Tension stretches or pulls apart the crust.
Why does an elastic band stretch if there is weight on it?
The force exerted by the weight exceeds the force of the elasticity that normally keeps the elastic band in a contracted state. As the band stretches, the resistance increases to the point where it is equal to the force exerted by the weight.
Which stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock?
Tensional stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock. This type of stress occurs where tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
What is the force with which gravity pulls on a quantity of matter is reffered to as?
The force with which gravity pulls on a quantity of matter is referred to as gravity.
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the earths crust?
Generally materials that fly apart are being pushed rather than pulled. We could devise a mechanism that pulls materials apart - for example, if we attach two hooks and pull them on winches in opposite directions. In that case we would describe the force as mechanical in nature. But it is more likely that things get pushed apart by their own internal pressure.
What is the stretching force of a spring called?
it is isn't really a force but when something expands, it's called tension.
The type of stress that stretches and pulls a body apart is?
Tension
Can Matter only move if a force pushes or pulls on it?
Matter can move without an external force if it possesses kinetic energy. However, in order to change its speed or direction, a force is typically required to push or pull on it.
What is the invisible force of nature that pulls matter towards the center of major planetary bodies such as earth?
Gravity is the invisible force of nature that pulls matter towards the center of major planetary bodies such as Earth. This force is responsible for keeping planets in orbit around the sun and for holding our feet firmly on the ground.
