Question

Metals can be a lot of a strain and therefore have a high ______________.

Answer 1

Metals:

• Metals are materials holding or possessing the characteristics of being shiny, hard, fusible, malleable, ductile, etc.
• A few examples of metals (materials) are – Gold, Silver, Aluminium, Copper, Iron, etc.

Tensile strength:

• Tensile stress or strength is the capacity of the material to resist when an external force or pressure is applied.
• Tensile strength is a measurement of the force required to pull something such as rope, wire, or a structural beam to the point where it breaks.

Thus, Metals can be under a lot of strain and therefore have high tensile strength.
