Q137 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2021 (25 Aug Shift 1) · Physics

When a spiral spring is stretched by suspending a load with it, the strain produced is called strain.

A
volume
Correct answer
B
shearing
C
transverse
D
longitudinal

Solution

Due to load, transverse stress will be produced to a small portion of the spring. Due to this shearing strain is developed.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
