You have been assigned to design an open cylindrical storage tank 4 meters tall with a diameter of 8 meters to be made out of A-

36 steel. The tank will hold a fluid with density of rho = 1.2 g/cm^3 (or 1200 kg/m^3 ). Using a safety factor of 4, what wall thickness is required?

Answer:

The required wall thickness is 1.506 \times 10^{-3} m

Explanation:

Given:

Fluid density \rho = 1200 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }

Diameter of tank d = 8 m

Length of tank l = 4 m

F.S = 4

For A-36 steel yield stress \sigma = 250 MPa,

Allowable stress \sigma _{allow} = \frac{\sigma}{F.S}

 \sigma _{allow} = \frac{250}{4} = 62.5 MPa

Pressure force is given by,

 P = \rho gh

 P = 1200 \times 9.8 \times 4

P = 47088 Pa

Now for a vertical pipe,

\sigma _{allow} = \frac{Pd}{4t}

Where t = required thickness

 t = \frac{Pd}{4 \sigma _{allow} }

 t = \frac{47088 \times 8 }{4 \times 62.5 \times 10^{6} }

t = 1.506 \times 10^{-3} m

Therefore, the required wall thickness is 1.506 \times 10^{-3} m

professor190 [17]

Answer:

It helps ensure the security of client data.

Explanation:

Cloud computing is one of the security features in networking which is being adopted by big corporations and organizations inorder to ensure smooth running of the organization.

Also, due to the sensitivity of data which some organizations deals in, they tried everything possible to protect themselves and their clients' information through use of cloud computing.<em> Data are stored in the clouds, and requires special administrative rights for it to be accessed by some of the staffs working in any given organization.</em>

The Ethernet (CSMA/CD) alternates between contention intervals and successful transmissions. Assume a 100 Mbps Ethernet over 1 k
Vesnalui [34]
<h3><u>CSMA/CD Protocol: </u></h3>

Carrier sensing can transmit the data at anytime only the condition is before sending the data sense carrier if the carrier is free then send the data.

But the problem is the standing at one end of channel, we can’t send the entire carrier. Because of this 2 stations can transmit the data (use the channel) at the same time resulting in collisions.

There are no acknowledgement to detect collisions, It's stations responsibility to detect whether its data is falling into collisions or not.

<u>Example: </u>

T_{P}=1 H r, at time t = 10.00 AM, A starts, 10:59:59 AM B starts at time 11:00 AM collision starts.

12:00 AM A will see collisions

Pocket Size to detect the collision.

\begin{aligned}&T_{t} \geq 2 T_{P}\\&\frac{L}{B} \geq 2 T_{P}\\&L \geq 2 \times T_{P} \times B\end{aligned}

CSMA/CD is widely used in Ethernet.

<u>Efficiency of CSMA/CD:</u>

  • In the previous example we have seen that in worst case 2 T_{P} time require to detect a collision.
  • There could be many collisions may happen before a successful completion of transmission of a packet.

We are given number of collisions (contentions slots)=4.

\text { Propagation day }=\frac{\text {distance}}{\text {speed}}

Distance = 1km = 1000m

\begin{aligned}&\text { Speed }=2 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}\\ &T_{P}=\frac{1000}{2 \times 10^{8}}=(0.5) \times 10^{-5}=5 \times 10^{-6}\\ &T_{t}=5 \mu \mathrm{sec}\end{aligned}
