Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the three primary mechanical forces that can cause an injury to occur?
A
Compression
B
Tension
C
Shear
D
Bending
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The first two, compression and tension, are the most important. The majority of injury conditions are the result of some type of compression or tension force. Yet, recognizing the other three-torsion, bending, and shear-is important as well.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main forces which act on our tissues are tension, compression, and shear forces (1).

Detailed explanation-3: -Mechanical forces include shearing, tension, and compression. The last produces the greatest degree of tissue trauma and can complicate wound repair and healing. Thermal injuries are mediated through radiation, convection, conduction, electricity, and excessive cold.

Detailed explanation-4: -The forces most often applied are acceleration, deceleration, shearing, and compression.

Detailed explanation-5: -Tensile force. Compression force. Shear force.
