Ability to withstand force is called strength.The internal resistive force developed due external force acting on it.It can be expressed as force per unit area

Stress is a measure of the load applied to a sample relative to a cross sectional area of the sample(force per unit area). Strength is a quantification of the sample's ability to carry a load. Units of measure are same for both.

Stress (may be in tension or compression or shear)is the pressure developed on application of loads ,on a structure. Stress is the force per unit area, it depends on area of structure, while Strength is the resistance to maximum stress at the time of failure, it does not depend on area Strength...

Stress (may be in tension or compression or shear)is the pressure developed on application of loads ,on a structure. Stress is the force per unit area, it depends on area of structure, while Strength is the resistance to maximum stress at the time of failure, it does not depend on area Strength is an extrinsic property of the material. It is derived outcome of heat treatment processes. It is a function of grain size, No of slip planes within a grain etc. Therefore strength defines capacity of a material to carry loads. Stress is an internal resistance/force per unit area in the material, generated due to application of external force. Incidently, both have same units as strength is also measured by force/area. strength is the maximum stress the structure can withstand. read less

Strength for a physical quantity can be magnitude of a vector whereas stress corresponds to force per unit area that is deformation of an elastic body.

Stress is the force per unit area, it depends on area of structure, while strength is the resistance to maximum stress at the time of failure, it does not depend on area.
