a force applied parallel to the surface within an object that pushes one part of the body one way and an adjacent part another way is called:
torsion
tension
shear
compression

Explanation:

• Torsion involves twisting forces.
• Tension is a pulling force along the axis.
• Shear force acts parallel to a surface, causing adjacent parts to slide past each other (matching the description of pushing one part one way and adjacent part another way).
• Compression is a pushing force along the axis. So the correct answer is shear.

Answer:

C. shear
