Q

Do the 2 rubber bands stretch as much as the single rubber band did under the same force?

A

the deformation (or stretch) of the 2 rubber bands was not as large as that of the single rubber band unless you exerted twice as much force (the stress of the 1 rubber band is 2x as large as the stress of the 2 rubber bands)

Q

mechanical stress

A

the internal force divided by the cross-sectional area of the surface on which internal force acts (stress may vary within an object and is associated with a specific internal surface)

Q

axial stresses (normal or longitudinal stresses)

A

tension and compression; acts perpendicular (or normal) to the analysis plane

17
Q

transverse stress

A

shear

18
Q

Tensile Stress

A

(rubber band example) is the axial or normal stress that occurs at the analysis plane as a result of a force or load that tends to pull apart the molecules bonding the object together at that plane

19
Q

which anatomical structures are longer in one dimension than in the other 2? (tension)

A

long bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments

20
Q

stress in such structures is typically analyzed by (tension)

A

considering analysis planes that cut through the structure perpendicular to its longest dimension

21
Q

the stresses that act perpendicular to the analysis planes (this the long acid of the structure are called

A

axial, normal, or longitudinal stresses

22
Q

axial loading (tension)

A

a loading situation in which the forces act in the direction of the long axis of the bone (if cut perpendicular stress could be determined in the bone)

23
Q

if the force tends to pull the bone apart and stress acts away from the analysis plane the stress is…

A

tensile stress

24
Q

if the cross sectional area changes as you move distally along its length what else changes?

A

the stress changes/varies (inversely)

25
Q

an object tends to deform by stretching or elongating in the direction of the…

A

external loads

26
Q

for most materials, this elongation is directly proportional to the…

A

magnitude of the stress

27
Q

in humans, very large tensile loads may…

A

sprain or rupture ligaments and tendons, tear muscles and cartilage, and fracture bones
