A spring is stretched by applying a load to its free end. The strain produced in the spring is

A

volumetric

B

shear

C

longitudinal and shear

D

longitudinal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
When spring is stretch by applying a load to its free end, the length and shape of the spring change, resulting the production of longitudinal and shear strain in the spring.
