Answer to Problem 1CQ

The result obtained by dividing the tensile force with the original cross-sectional area of specimen is Engineering Normal stress.

Explanation of Solution

Consider a specimen having a cross-sectional area as A and a tensile force with magnitude F acts axially on it. As the applied force tries to deform the material the material experience the restoring force over the cross-section.

The result of this tensile force over the cross-sectional area over the specimen is known as engineering normal stress.

Thus, the result obtained by dividing the tensile force with the original cross-sectional area of specimen is Engineering Normal stress.
