What is stress force?

Stress is a force acting on certain area. Stress equals force divided by area.


Because stress is a force what does it do?

Stress is not a force but force divided by area. If high enough, it will cause itself to break


Why true stress higher than the nominal stress?

nominal stress is the engineering stress, which is the force divided by the original Area. true stress is the force divided by the area of the deformed specimen as it deforms. Since the area of the deformed specimen is usually smaller than the original area true stress is higher than the nominal stress... Ali D


How do you find out stress from force?

stress is force divided by area. If you have a force of 10 acting over area 1 stress is 10 ; if area is 2 stress is 5, etc. Force has units of pounds or newtons and stress is pounds per square inch or newtons per square meter


What quantity is divide by the surface area?

The quantity that is divided by the surface area is force. Force divided by surface area is equal to pressure.


SI unit for Pressure is Pascal Same goes with Stress which is Pascal But what's the different between them?

In both cases, it is a force divided by an area.In both cases, it is a force divided by an area.In both cases, it is a force divided by an area.In both cases, it is a force divided by an area.


When Force divided by the area over which the force is exerts pressure?

yes, force divided by area is pressure; its units are pounds per square inch, or newtons per square meter, for example. I you pull on an object with force over an area it is called stress


If a constant force is spread over an area and that area gets smaller what happens?

If the force remains constant, then the pressure - which is force per unit area - will increase.


What is the amount of force exerted on a given area divided by the area?

Force exerted on a given area divided by the area would give the pressure or thrust. It is also termed as stress in case of elasticity. Its unit is N/m2 or also known as pascal.


Pressure is equal to the amount of force exerted on an object divided by the volume over which the force is exerted?

Over the area not volume


Stress on minor diameter of bolt when bolt is subjected to longitudinal force?

The stress on a bolt under longitudinal force is the total force on the bolt divided by the stress area. The stress area is a little bigger than the minor diameter area, calculated from the average of the minor diameter and pitch diameter. The total force on the bolt is its torque preload plus the (bolt stiffness/(bolt +member stiffness) x (externally applied load )


Pressure is equal to 3 into force into velocity square divided by phi square into time square?

I am not sure what you are trying to calculate. Pressure is defined as force divided by area.
