Q. 9 Define Stress ?

Whenever some external system of forces acts on a body, it undergoes some deformation. As the body undergoes some deformation, it set up internal resistance to the deformation. This resistance force per unit area to deformation is called Stress.

It is denoted by Sigma (σ), Unit of Stress is N/m² 

Q. 10 Define Strain ?

The Deformation per unit length is called Strain. It is dimension less.
