the collagen fibers of bone have great tensile strength(the strength to endure stretching forces), while the calcium salts, which are similar in physical properties to marble, have great compressional strength (the strength to endure squeezing forces)

What is the tensile strength of .375 bolt?
Tensile strength is a material propery, it does not depend on size. Look at a material chart to find its yield and tensile strenghts. Then use the stress equation, Stress = Force / Area to determine if your .375 bolt can handle the force on it. If your bolt is in shear, you need to find Shear strenghts.
Is iron tensile strength?
no iron has any tensile strength
Is tensile strength of cold rolled steel is greater than yield stress?
For ductile materials, the yield stress is always lower than the tensile strength of the material. For brittle material they can usually be considered the same point. Steel is generally considered ductile.
Why is timber rarely used as tensioning in structures even though it has a high tensile strength?
Wood actually has an extremely low tensile strength, especially when compared to almost any other building material.
Is there a liquid with high tensile strength?
Liquids do not have tensile strength. The equivalent property is viscosity.
Ultimate tensile strength?
the maximum stress which the material can bear without breaking is called the maximum tensile strength of the material
Is tensile strength dependent on the size of the material?
No. The tensile strength comes from the grain inside the metal and the ingredients used to make a certain metal. Lengths are determined by tensile strength and material advised to be used for that specific use.
What is the tensile strength of plywood?
It is the ultimate strength of a material subjected to tensile loading. In other words, it is the maximum stress developed in a material in a tension test.
What is the opposite stress of compressional stress?
Tensile.
If an item can withstand 300000 PSI of pressure what is its Tensile Strength?
Your question is vague. Any way if it can withstand 300000 PSI the tensile strength is higher than that. It depends on the material since Tensile strength is known as ultimate tensile strength at which level the item fails.
What is the difference between yield strength and tensile strength?
Yield strength is a form of tensile strength, as yield strength is maximum strength upto which a material retains its original shape or it is in elastisity above which it will in plasticity.
What is tensile strength of EN24 series of steel?
the yield strength of EN8 material is 465MPa.
What is tensile strength mean?
It is the strength in pounds per square inch of a material at which it will be pulled apart.
Which is weaker shear strength or tensile strength or compressive strength?
That all depends on the material For most all metals, tensile strength is stronger by about factor of 1.7 For most metals tensile strength is equal to compression strength For concrete, both comppression strength and shear strength are higher than tensile strength For many composites, tensile strenght is higherthan compression strength
What is the tensile strength of?
Resistance against pulling or squeezing of the material in their show.
What is the difference between tensile strength and tensile modulus?
Tensile strength is the ultimate capacity of the material to resist a tensile load regardless of deflection.Tensile modulus also known as Young's modulus, is a measure of the stiffness of an isotropic elastic material. It is defined as the ratio of the uniaxial stress over the uniaxial strain. It is determined from the slope of a stress-strain curve traced during tensile tests conducted on a sample of the material.
What is a measure of how much pulling or tension a material can withstand?
its tensile strength :P
