Which outcome results when a piezoelectric crystal is mechanically stressed?

💡 Explanation

A voltage difference arises because mechanical stress induces **charge separation** within the crystal lattice; therefore a voltage appears rather than phase transition or crystal fracture because the stress is significantly below material limits.
