I think the answer is shear stress.

Himzz said:   9 years ago
I think the answer is compressive stress because the force applied is tensile and stress is internal resistance which oppose the applied force.

Bs nayak said:   9 years ago
Yes, the correct answer is compressive stress.

Gutema said:   8 years ago
Yes, the correct answer is tensile stress.

Amar said:   8 years ago
Tensile stress is correct answer. I agree with it.

Pooja said:   7 years ago
The answer is correct. The Elongation is not possible in compressive forces.

Monika verma said:   7 years ago
I think the answer is shear stress.

Abhik said:   6 years ago
Elongate means tensile.

Indher said:   6 years ago
Elongation means force is tensile. Stress always opposes the force thats why compressive stress.

Mohd javid said:   5 years ago
As the force applied is elongating the body then stress will be compressive.
