What is the explanation for compressive stress and tensile stress?
Compressive stress occurs when a material is being pushed or squeezed, causing it to become shorter in length. This type of stress is caused by forces acting to compress the material. Tensile stress, on the other hand, occurs when a material is being pulled or stretched, causing it to become longer in length. This type of stress is caused by forces acting to stretch the material. Both compressive and tensile stress are important factors in understanding the behavior of materials under different types of loading conditions.
