← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when applying shear stress to quartz crystal?
A)Voltage generation across crystal faces✓
B)Crystal lattice dislocation movement
C)Increased magnetic domain alignment
D)Superconducting transition temperature decrease
💡 Explanation
The outcome is voltage generation because the piezoelectric effect causes charge separation, rather than dislocation. Mechanical stress polarizes the crystal structure; therefore, the voltage is produced rather than magnetism; other outcomes are observed at much lower temperatures.
