A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.0 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressure of 1.

62 MPa. The tank will be constructed from steel that has a yield strength of 295 MPa. If a factor of safety of 3.0 with respect to the yield strength is required, determine the minimum wall thickness tmin required for the spherical tank.

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

Tmin = The minimum wall thickness =PD/2бp

where D = diameter of 8.0 m

Internal pressure = 1.62 MPa

Then

The yield strength = 295MPa/3.0 = 98.33

thus,

PD/2бp = 1.62 * 8000/ 2 *98.33

= 12960/196.66 = 65.90

Therefore the wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

A force of 20. Newtons to the left exerted on a cart for 10. Seconds. For what period of time must a 50.-newton force to the rig
FinnZ [79.3K]
Impulse = (force) x (time)

The first impulse was (20 N) x (10 sec) = 200 meters/sec

The second one is (50 N) x (time) and we want it equal to the first one, so

(50 N) x (time) = 200 meters/sec

Divide each side by 50N :    Time = 200/50 = <em>4 seconds</em>

By the way, the quantity we're playing with here is the cart's <em>momentum</em>.

Consider heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and the air surrounding them. The first solid is being cooled by a
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The solution to the question above is explained below:

Explanation:

For which solid is the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable?

<u>Answer</u>

The lumped system analysis is more likely to be applicable for the body cooled naturally.

<em>Question :Why?</em>

<u>Answer</u>

Biot number is proportional to the convection heat transfer coefficient, and it is proportional to the air velocity. When Biot no is less than 0.1 in  the case of natural convection, then lumped analysis can be applied.

<u>Further explanations:</u>

Heat is a form of energy.

Heat transfer describes the flow of heat across the boundary of a system due to temperature differences and the subsequent temperature distribution and changes. There are three different ways the heat can transfer: conduction, convection, or radiation.

Heat transfer  analysis which utilizes this idealization is known as the lumped system analysis.

The Biot number is a criterion dimensionless quantity used in heat transfer calculations which gives a direct indication of the relative importance of conduction and convection in determining the temperature history of a body being heated or cooled by convection at its surface. In heat transfer analysis, some bodies are observed to behave like a "lump" whose entire  body temperature remains essentially uniform at all times during a heat transfer process.

Conduction is the transfer of energy in the form of heat or electricity from one atom to another within an object and conduction of heat occurs when molecules increase in temperature.

Convection is a transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid. Convection occurs within liquids and gases between areas of different temperature.
