Answer: 33 mm
Explanation:
Given
Diameter of the tank, d = 9 m, so that, radius = d/2 = 9/2 = 4.5 m
Internal pressure of gas, P(i) = 1.5 MPa
Yield strength of steel, P(y) = 340 MPa
Factor of safety = 0.3
Allowable stress = 340 * 0.3 = 102 MPa
σ = pr / 2t, where
σ = allowable stress
p = internal pressure
r = radius of the tank
t = minimum wall thickness
t = pr / 2σ
t = 1.5*10^6 * 4.5 / 2 * 102*10^6
t = 0.033 m
t = 33 mm
The minimum thickness of the wall required is therefore, 33 mm
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The moon doesn’t change shape on its own.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Shapes of moon that we observe is based on the different perspectives of view from the earth and position of moon with respect to the sun. The changes arise due to the rotation of earth on its own axis as well as the revolution of moon on its orbit. The moon doesn’t have any light of its own.
It just reflects off the light from the sun. Due to tidal locking phenomenon one face of the moon permanently faces the sun. Because of the changes in position of moon with respect to the sun the moon is lighted up variably giving rise to various phases like new moon, full moon, crescent etc.
A pure substance that cannot be decomposed by ordinary chemical change. . Energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means.
C most of the Earths weather occurs in this layer.
