Question
if stress keeps increasing until the material snaps, it has reached the
When stress on a material keeps increasing until it snaps, the term that describes this point is the breaking point. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, damage is a more general term for harm, collision is when two objects hit each other, friction is a force that resists motion, deformation is a change in shape (but not necessarily breaking), potential energy is stored energy, peak force is the maximum force (but not specific to breaking), and contact force is a general force when objects are in contact. The breaking point specifically refers to the point where the material can no longer withstand the stress and breaks.
