P14.003A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.1 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressur

e of 1.26 MPa. The tank will be constructed from steel that has a yield strength of 270 MPa. If a factor of safety of 2.0 with respect to the yield strength is required, determine the minimum wall thickness tmin required for the spherical tank.

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank is 0.0189 m

Explanation:

Given data:

d = inside diameter = 8.1 m

P = internal pressure = 1.26 MPa

σ = 270 MPa

factor of safety = 2

Question: Determine the minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank, tmin = ?

The allow factor of safety:

\sigma _{a}  =\frac{\sigma }{factor-of-safety} =\frac{270}{2} =135MPa

The minimun wall thickness:

t=\frac{Pd}{4\sigma _{a} } =\frac{1.26*8.1}{4*135} =0.0189m

What is larger a Atom or a Molecule?
Kipish [7]
I believe an Atom is a very powerful source, the basic unit of a chemical element. An atom is a source of nuclear energy.


But a molecule on the other hand isn't so different.
a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
I hope that helps, have a fantastic day!

You are holding a positive charge and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 mm to your north and 1 mm to your east. Wh
lara [203]

If I hold a positive charge in my hand and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 mm to your north and 1 mm to your east then the direction of the force on the charge I am holding is towards the north-east direction.

Reasoning:

It is given that there is a positive charge in my hand. There are two more positive charges with the same magnitude. One is 1 mm far towards the east, and the other one is 1 mm far towards the north. It is required to find the direction of the force acting on the charge in my hand.

Let the magnitude of the charge in my hand is Q, and the magnitude of the other charges is q.

Thus the electric force applied on the charge in my hand due to each other is,

F=\frac{kQq}{r^2}

Here k is the Coulomb constant, and r is the distance between the charges.

It is also known that the force on a positive charge due to another positive charge is acted outwards.

Thus, the force on the charge due to the charge on the east is,

\vec{F_1}=\frac{kQq}{( 10^{-3}\text{ m})^2}\hat{i}

And the force on the charge due to the charge on the north is,

\vec{F_2}=\frac{kQq}{( 10^{-3}\text{ m})^2}\hat{j}

As the forces are equal in magnitude and one is perpendicular to the other, thus the net force will be acted at an angle of 45^\circ from the north or from the north direction.

Thus the net force is acting in the north-east direction.

A block slides down a slope inclined at 37 degrees. If the slope is frictionless and the block starts off at rest, how fast is i
lianna [129]

Answer:

Vf= 3.435 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity Vi =0 m/s (starting from Rest position)

θ = 37⁰

Distance S = 1 m

To find: Final Velocity Vf=?

fist we have to find the down slope net acceleration a = g sin θ

a= 9.81 sin  37⁰ = 5.9 m/s²

By 3rd equation of motion

2 a S= Vf² - Vi²

Vf = Square root ( 2 × 5.9 m/s²  × 1  + 0 m/s)

Vf = Square root (11.8)

Vf= 3.435 m/s
