What is stress force?

Well, darling, stress force is simply the force applied to an object per unit area. It's like giving someone a big ol' bear hug - the pressure you exert on them is the stress force. So, next time someone's stressing you out, just remember it's all about force and pressure, honey.


Define direct shear stress?

Shear force is a load (pounds, or newtons) in plane of the object which produces shear stress ( pounds per sq inch, or Pascals). Shear force is related to shear stress as STRESS = FORCE/AREA


What is a hoop stress?

The hoop stress is the force exerted circumferentially in both directions on every particle in the cylinder wall.


Is it the stress that produces strain or strain produces stress?

A Force applied to an object will cause a displacement. Strain is effectively a measure of this displacement (change in length divided by original length). Stress is the Force applied divided by the area it is applied to. (eg. pounds per square inch) So, to answer the question, it is the applied Force that produces both stress and strain. Stress and strain are linked together by various material properties such as Poisson's ratio and Young's Modulus.


What is mechanical stress?

I would Ike to be more explanatory on this. when force is applied on object(e.g. a piece )certain area or ideally speaking whole area (c/s) tries to elongate or compress.but due to elastic property of material,piece on which force is acted,tries to regain its past shape or stage so one resistant force is developed.This force is called stress.and stress intensity is given by: mechanical stress is force divided by area σ=F/A if unit of F is Newton and area in Sq. m then mech. stress is in Pascal

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


How do Calculate engineering fracture stress?

stress= force/C.S.A. so fracture stress = force at fracture / Cross.Sectional.Area.


Why shear stresses are maximum at neutral axis?

according to bending stress because shear stress at neutral is 0 that is why shear force is maximum


What is the difference between force and stress?

Force = Mass x Acceleration Stress = Force / Cross Sectional Area


The amount of stress or force an object can take?

The amount of stress or force that an object can take.


are Stress is equal to the force divided by area?

Stress is defined as force per unit area. It is the measure of the internal resistance of a material to deformation under a load. The formula for stress is Stress = Force / Area.


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


The amount of stress or force that an object can take?

The amount of stress or force that an object can take.


What is the science definition of stress force?

Shear force is a load (pounds, or newtons) in plane of the object which produces shear stress ( pounds per sq inch, or Pascals). Shear force is related to shear stress as STRESS = FORCE/AREA


What are definition of these terms stress normal stress shear stress and pressure?

Normal stress is a force acting perpendicular to a surface, shear stress is a force acting parallel to a surface causing deformation, and pressure is a measure of force applied over a certain area.


What is stress in phonetics?

Stress is the degree of force which is accompanied by a strong force of exhalation and gives an impression of loudness


Why the units of stress and pressure are same?

Stress and pressure have the same units (force per unit area, such as N/m^2 or Pa) because they both represent the force distributed over a given area. In other words, pressure is a type of stress that acts uniformly over a surface area. It is this commonality in their definition and physical nature that results in the same units for stress and pressure.
