Shearing stress causes change in
Correct answer: C. Shape
- A. Length
- B. Breadth
- C. Shape
- D. Volume
Explanation
Shearing stress involves forces that act parallel to the surface of a material, causing it to deform by sliding layers over one another, which changes the shape. It does not change the volume or individual dimensions like length or breadth. Instead, it results in a distortion that is characteristic of a change in shape.
