When stress stretches something, it is called "tension." Tension occurs when forces are applied to an object, causing it to elongate or deform. It is one of the primary types of stress, alongside compression and shear, and is commonly encountered in materials under load, such as ropes, cables, and structural components.
When stress squeezes an object it is compression. When stress stretches an object it is called tension. The process by which the shape of a rock changes because of stress is called deformation.

Stress
Tensional stress force pulls on the crust and stretches rock. This type of stress occurs where tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
Tension
it wears out, heat ,stress and stretches.
It means the crust stretches like spaghetti.
Tensional stress pulls crust apart and stretches rock, causing it to deform and eventually break along fault lines. This type of stress commonly occurs at divergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates are moving away from each other.
Tension or tensile stress is what you described in the question.
