Meaning
Breaking stress is the stress required to break a material (also known as ultimate tensile stress).
About Breaking Stress
- Breaking stress is .
- Breaking stress is measured in pascals (Pa).
- Breaking stress indicates the strength of a material.
- Breaking stress is dependent on the material's composition and structure.
Examples
- Steel has a high breaking stress, making it suitable for construction.
- Glass has a low breaking stress and is more prone to breaking under tension.
