It should be more than the ultimate stress.

Praful said:   9 years ago
Yes, I agree.

Vicky said:   9 years ago
Yes, It should be more.

Pranay SB said:   9 years ago
No, less only @Apcivilian.

After ultimate stress (maximum stress that the specimen can take) also, material takes less stress with an increased deformation which in turn causes the breaking.

Maloch said:   9 years ago
Right answer @Pranay sb.

Galav said:   8 years ago
To sum it up, if you consider the actual cross sectional area at the time of breaking, the stress at which breaking occurs is more than the Ultimate stress.

Ramu said:   8 years ago
Yes, the breaking stress is less than the ultimate stress.

Kaku said:   8 years ago
If we talk about stress-strain curve in this max. Stress occurs after yield point that is ultimate stress point after that stress goes reducing.

Nivrutti said:   7 years ago
By stress strain curve ultimate stress is greater than breaking stress. So answer is correct.

Breaking, the stress at which breaking occurs is more than the Ultimate stress. Breaking stress is not less than the ultimate stress.
