what is the difference between stress and pressure?. what
is the difference between moment and torque?

Answer Posted / nitin

We know that every materials is elastic in nature , so when
a force is applied it tends to deform and due to this
deformation , there is an internal resistance produced
which tends to spring back the molecules to their original
position and this internal resistance per unit area is know
as STRESS .

Pressure is nothing but force acting on a unit area .
