Which type of stress does the equation σ = F/A represent? The equation σ = F/A represents (blank) stress.

Tensile

Explanation:

Tensile stress can be defined as the force per unit area generated in an object due to an external force acting on it. Thus, tensile stress causes an object (body) to experience an increase in its length because it stretches the object (body).

Therefore, the equation σ = F/A represents tensile stress.
