A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 9 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressure of 1.50

MPa. The tank will be constructed from steel that has a yield strength of 340 MPa. If a factor of safety of 3.0 with respect to the yield strength is required, determine the minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank.

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

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

See the explanation.

Explanation:

The speeds of sound depend upon the temperature of the medium. As the temperature increased in the afternoon, the speed of sound increases. Then the time taken by reflected sound will be less than 0.1 sec in the afternoon. And to hear an echo the time gap between an original sound and reflected sound must be at least 0.1 sec. That is why the student could not hear the echo at all in the afternoon.

How net current on a toroid is zero?​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The concept of zero net current in toroid occurs when we try to determine magnetic field induction outside toroid.

to determine magnetic field outside toroid, we consider a circular loop outside toroid as shown in figure.

to get the net enclosed current inside the loop, let us consider the crosssection AA' in toroid as shown in figure

as we see the crosssection AA' part of figure, we see that currents in the winding are in opposition directions at near to the loop

and far away from loop. Hence the concept of net current zero occurs in toroid when we try to determine

magnetic field induction outside toroid.

The left face of a biconvex lens has a radius of curvature of magnitude 11.7 cm, and the right face has a radius of curvature of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

R1 = + 11.7 cm

R2 = - 18.7 cm

n = 1.52

(a) Use lens maker formula

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( n-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{R_{1}}-\frac{1}{R_{2}} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( 1.52-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{11.7}}+\frac{1}{18.7} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{0.52\times 30.4}{218.79}

f = 13.84 cm

(b)

R1 = + 18.7 cm

R2 = - 11.7 cm

n = 1.52

(a) Use lens maker formula

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( n-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{R_{1}}-\frac{1}{R_{2}} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( 1.52-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{18.7}}+\frac{1}{11.7} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{0.52\times 30.4}{218.79}

f = 13.84 cm
