Rubber. The other three are metals, and therefore good conductors.
Answer:
Equator
Explanation:
The equator is the line of latitude that separates the earth into the northern and southern hemisphere.Its magnitude is 0 degrees latitude. The equator and other lines of latitude are parallel to each other. The lines of longitude which is 0 degrees is known as the Greenwich meridian. The longitudinal lines however are not parallel as they converge at the poles.
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
