Question

The maximum stress that a bar will withstand before failing is called • Rapture Strength • Yield Strength • Tensile Strength • Both 1 & 2

Answer 1

Answer: Rupture strength

Explanation: Rupture strength is the strength of a material that is bearable till the point before the breakage by the tensile strength applied on it. This term is mentioned when there is a sort of deformation in the material due to tension.So, rupture will occur before whenever there are chances of failing and the material is still able to bear stresses before failing.
