      Welcome to engineering, where we have MPa as a unit of stress and mm/mm as a unit of strain!

        mm/mm?? why not call it m/m?

          Why km/h (or mph) and not ft/year? Because the numbers have a nicer magnitude then.

            Doesn’t apply here, say for example i have a piece of steel with length 100mm and it stretches 10mm, is mm/mm the strain would be 0.1 mm/mm, in meters it would be 0.1m/m

            Really strain is dimensionless but occasionally people add units

              I feel like I should’ve spotted that… they’re the same units. 🤦

      Agreed. Perhaps it was based on tensile stress? Tensile stress = deforming force / cross-sectional area

      Yes. Stress is a measure of an object’s internal pressure.

    So what you are saying is, I have to eat more, get fatter, widen my area and therefore reduce the stress?

    Got it.

      That will just increase the force (gravity).

      You need to lie down. That increases area but not force.
