Details / Explanation
Torque or Turning Force:
It is the total amount of force which is required to create acceleration on moving substance.Couple:
Two forces those acts on equally,parallely & oppositely on two separate points of same material.Moment:
It is the amount of moving effect which is gained for action of turning force.Stress:
It is the force that can prevent equal & opposite force. That means, it is the preventing force. If one force acts on outside of a material, then a reactive force automatically acts to protest that force. The amount of reactive force per unit area is called stress. e.g. Tensile Stress, Compressive Stress, Thermal Stress.Strain:
If a force acts on a substance, then in that case if the substance would deform. Then the amount of deformation per unit length of that substance is called strain.Spring:
It is one type of device which is being distorted under certain amount of load & also can also go to its original face after the removal of that load.Its function:
To store energy.
To absorb energy.
To control motion of two elements.
