The maximum stress which a body can bear is called its
Correct answer: A. ultimate tensile strength
- A. ultimate tensile strength
- B. permanent stress
- C. elastic stress
- D. all type of stress
Explanation
The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before necking, which leads to fracture. It is an important property of materials, especially in engineering and material sciences, as it indicates the maximum load that a material can bear under tension
