When a body is subjected to two equal and opposite pulls, as a result of which the body tends to extend its length, the stress and strain induced are
Tensile stress and tensile strain
Based on our analysis, equal and opposite pulls causing extension result in tensile stress and tensile strain. Therefore, when a body is subjected to two equal and opposite pulls, resulting in the body tending to extend its length, the stress and strain induced are tensile stress and tensile strain.
