What is all about the stress-strain relation in tension?
When you pull on something, it stretches a bit. Even materials you think are rigid, stretch if enough force is applied. The numbers are very important since they say a lot about the characteristics of materials. Of course all this depends on the thickness of the thing that stretches, so engineers use units that include the cross-sectional area. Strain (Think INch) is the deflection or distance the material stretches. Stress (Think pRESSure) is the force/cross-section, perhaps PSI.
How can ingneous rock disturb sedimentary rock layers?
Molten Rock from with in earth can force its way up through the layers above it cooling and forming igneous rock.
Is an intrusive rock called platonic rock?
yes
What is the original rock called before metamorphism takes place?
It is called the 'protolith' or 'parent rock'.
Rock formed form rock fragments is called?
sedimentary
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 name given to force that stretches the spring?
The force that stretches a spring is called tension force. This force appears when the spring is being pulled or stretched in one direction.
What is elastic force that stretches or pulls matter called?
Tension. The force itself is not elastic, but the material being pulled may be.
When stress stretches an object it is called?
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.
What is the stretching force of a spring called?
it is isn't really a force but when something expands, it's called tension.
What is the force that stretches or pulls apart the crust of the earth?
Tension stretches or pulls apart the crust.
What is a force that stretches materials apart?
tension
What is a force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume called?
A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume called stress. Tension is the stress that sketched rock so that is becomes thinner in the middle.
When you use a crowbar to lift a rock you are working against a force called?
input force
When stress squeezes an object is called?
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.
Folded rock is a sign of the stress force called?
Compression.
When earth's force slants rock layers it is called?
tilting
