Answer / john wayne

The moment is mostly used on axial parts like beams and
such while the torque is used on rotational bodies like
wheels , gears because the torque is looked at as a
rotational force both of them have the same effect when
applied on bodies, the moment however affects a point on
the body which is the point the force is applied on as a
reaction the whole body is affected,but the torque affects
the whole body and doesnt have to be associated with a
point.

Answer / faiz ahmed meeran

pressure is the external force on a body per unit area and
its not the property of the body.but stress is the internal
force produced in the body ( as a reaction force) per unit
area.and its the property of the body.

Answer / shirin.r.s

Stress can be defined as the force acting per unit area.it
can be compressive or Tensile.Among these two the
compressive stress can be called as pressure.
