of the plane on which these maximum values occur.   **The answer is tensile stress is 0 ksi at 90 degrees.  **The answer is compressive stress is 7 ksi at 0 degrees.  Can you explain how that is? This was my thought process: I know that tensile would be zero because the force P is actually going inwards and not outwards. I know that means that there would be a compressive force. I am confused on the angles, how is a tensile force going 90 degress if there technically is no force in the tensile direction. And how is there a compressive force at 90 degrees if there is a stress? thank you!

Question

Determine the resulting maximum value of the normal stress. Specify the orientation of the plane on which these maximum values occur.

 

**The answer is tensile stress is 0 ksi at 90 degrees. 

**The answer is compressive stress is 7 ksi at 0 degrees.

I know that means that there would be a compressive force. I am confused on the angles, how is a tensile force going 90 degress if there technically is no force in the tensile direction.
