 It is a strain gauge that tends to elongate the wire and thereby increases its length and decreases its cross-sectional area. 
|  |  Gauge Factor 
 | 
|  |  Gauge Resistance 
 | 
|  |  Strain Factor 
 | 
|  |  Tensile Stress 
 | 
 Explanation: 
Detailed explanation-1: -When such a strain gauge is stretched its resistance increases, when compressed its resistance decreases. Strain is (change in length/original length) and so the resistance change of a strain gauge is a measurement of the change in length of the gauge and hence the surface to which the strain gauge is attached.
