What are the three main types of stress in rock

Compression, shearing and tension are the three main types of stresses faced by rocks. In regards to the force of compression, external force acts on the rock to squeeze it until it disintegrates. In case of shearing, the rock is pulled in two opposite directions by force. This ultimately results in the rock breaking down into pieces. Tension is another force that pulls the rock, making it thin in the middle. This way the rock disintegrates as it becomes weaker and weaker in the middle. Most of the rocks present in the earths crust are hugely affected by these three forces.

There is no graph to look at on here, but i shall explain them to you. a line graph is just in its title it’s a graph with a line running through the dots to show an increase or decrease. a bar graph is used to show how much or how little something is so a comparison. a scatter plot is used to graph points to tell the data. and i don’t know what a histogram is.
