Brick will usually be stronger in compression, but metals will usually be stronger in tension.
The surface tension of iso-octane at 20 0C is 18,77 dyn/cm.
Strong metals and jewelry.
All metals have a tensile strength. The strength varies with the metal and with such factors as temperature and additives.
Examples: lead, gold, silver, platinum etc.
Steel and Titanium
Brick will usually be stronger in compression, but metals will usually be stronger in tension.
Almost all metals can resist tension. Obviously, room temperature fluid metals such as mercury will not resist tension when they are in a liquid state, but otherwise, if you pull on it, it will pull back.
Making a plane out of metal parts may seem strange when you want to make something light. However, metals are generally very strong compared to their weight and very good under tension. Therefore aluminum and titanium are good metals to make parts of planes as they are comparatively light (dense) and very strong. Modern planes also use carbon allotropes in their construction because carbon too is light and strong in tension.
Metals like steel are strong in room temperature. If you want anymore, search for metals as strong as steel :)
Water forms hydrogen bonds, which gives it a strong surface tension.
not sure
The surface tension of iso-octane at 20 0C is 18,77 dyn/cm.
they have a strong hold of electrons!!!
Strong metals and jewelry.
Most metals do indeed have high melting points . The simple explanation is that the metallic bonds in these metals are very strong. There are low melting metals, the lowest mp metals are mercury a liquid at room temperature, gallium that melting at around 300C.
A strong fiber is one that soes not break under tension easily. Some examples of strong fibers are:kevlarhempcarbonglassspiders silk
