The strength of the forces that cause deformation is expressed by stress. The extent of deformation under stress is expressed by strain, which is dimensionless. Tensile (or compressive) stress, which causes elongation (or shortening) of the object or medium and is due to external forces acting along only one direction perpendicular to the cross-section.
